The Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, has said that it will decide the fate of the politicians omitted from its final list of candidates at its next meeting coming up this Thursday.
INEC National Commissioner, Mohammed Haruna, said this to newsmen on Wednesday.
Some of the politicians include Isa Pantami who is contesting the Gombe governorship election, Ladi Adebutu who is contesting the Ogun governorship on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party, Aminu Gwarzo, the Kano governorship candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress and his Kaduna State counterpart, Danjuma Laah, among others.
Haruna says the matter will be deliberated upon today although it is still uncertain whether the affected candidates would be reinstated following complaints by their political parties.
