PDP, Pantami give INEC three days to publish name as Gombe governorship candidate

The law firm Ahmed Raji & Co. sent a formal legal document dated 12 October to the chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC). According to Premium Times, the document conveys a demand for INEC to publish a name as the Gombe governorship candidate within three days.

In a separate development, INEC issued a disclaimer on its official X handle on Monday regarding a fraudulent publication circulating online. Nairametrics reports that the fake notice falsely claims to be a special announcement from the Commission concerning governorship candidate lists in Zamfara, Gombe, Delta, Plateau, Yobe, and Kano states. INEC stated the publication is not authentic and urged the public to disregard it and rely only on official, verified communication channels for electoral information.
