Kano by-election: PDP, NNPP, ADC missing from ballot

Three major opposition political parties are absent from the ballot in Saturday’s by-election conducted by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) in Kano State.

The affected parties are the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), the New Nigeria Peoples Party (NNPP), and a coalition involving the African Democratic Congress (ADC).

INEC has, however, declared its readiness to conduct what it described as a free, fair, and credible by-election in the Municipal and Ungogo state constituencies.

The off-season poll is being held to fill two vacant seats in the Kano State House of Assembly following the deaths of the former lawmakers last year.

At a recent media briefing, the Resident Electoral Commissioner in Kano, Abdul Zango, assured journalists that all political parties were participating in the exercise.

“All political parties were given an equal opportunity to nominate candidates. The commission is fully prepared to conduct a transparent and credible election,” Zango had said.

However, the final list of candidates released by the commission showed that only nine political parties were cleared to contest, excluding the PDP, NNPP, and ADC.

According to INEC, the parties participating in the by-election include Accord (A), Action Democratic Party (ADP), Action Peoples Party (APP), African Action Congress (AAC), All Progressives Congress (APC), Allied Peoples Movement (APM), Peoples Redemption Party (PRP), Young Progressives Party (YPP), and Zenith Labour Party (ZLP).

While the commission has yet to publicly explain the absence of the major opposition parties, the affected parties have accused INEC of deliberately denying them the opportunity to exercise their constitutional rights.

The NNPP, which is factionalised into three groups in Kano, reportedly submitted six different candidates for the two constituencies.

Reacting to the development, the Boniface-led faction of the NNPP, through Senator Mushud El-Jibril Doguwa, accused INEC of unjustly disqualifying its candidates.

“We duly submitted our candidates for the Municipal and Ungogo constituencies, but INEC refused to recognise our party for reasons best known to them,” Doguwa said.

He added, “This is a clear attempt to sideline us from the democratic process. We will not accept it. We are already consulting our lawyers and will institute legal action against INEC.”

Efforts to reach the Kwankwasiyya and Abdullahi Abiya-led factions of the NNPP were unsuccessful, as both chairmen could not be reached by phone as of press time.

On his part, the Kano State Chairman of the PDP, Alhaji Yusuf Kibiya, also accused the electoral body of violating provisions of the Electoral Act.

“We were ready and willing to participate in this by-election,” Kibiya said. “However, INEC only gave us four days to conduct our primaries and submit the names of candidates. That is not sufficient time, and it undermines the spirit of the law.”

He described the situation as “deeply troubling for democracy,” adding that the party would review its options.

  1. Now adjusting my mental list of reliable sites for this topic, and a stop at goodswaystore reinforced the adjustment, the small ongoing curation work of maintaining trusted sources is one of the actual practical activities of careful reading and this site has earned a permanent place on my list for this particular subject.

  2. Worth saying that the quiet confidence of the writing is what landed first, and a look at targetskein continued that quiet quality, confident writing without the loud display of confidence is a rare combination and this site has clearly developed both the knowledge and the editorial restraint to land that combination consistently.

  3. Reading this in a relaxed evening setting was a small pleasure, and a stop at oakcovecraftcollective extended the pleasant evening reading, content that fits the tone of relaxed time without becoming forgettable is what I look for in evening reading and this site has the right tone for that particular slot in my daily reading routine.

  5. Found this really helpful, the explanations are simple but they actually answer the questions a normal reader would have, and after I followed pebblepinemerchantgallery I had a clearer sense of the topic, no extra fluff just useful points laid out in a sensible order that made the time worth it.

  6. Now leaving a small mental note to recommend this when the topic comes up in conversation, and a look at vincatrench extended that recommend ready feeling, content that arms me with shareable references for likely future conversations is content with social value and this site is providing that conversational ammunition consistently for me lately.

  7. Reading this slowly and letting each paragraph land before moving on, and a stop at brofix earned the same patient approach, content that rewards slow reading rather than speed is content with real density and the writers here are clearly producing work that benefits from the careful eye rather than the rushed scan.

  8. Liked everything about the experience, from the opening through to the closing notes, and a stop at vyxcar extended that into more pages, finding a site where the editorial vision shows through every choice rather than feeling random is an increasingly rare experience and one I am glad to have today during this particular reading session.

  9. Easily one of the better explanations I have read on the topic, and a stop at hazelharborcraftcollective pushed it even higher in my mental ranking of useful resources, the kind of site that beats the average not by trying harder but by simply caring more about what it puts out daily which always shows.

Короче говоря, вот нормальный расклад — вывод из запоя на дому цена [url=https://vyvod-iz-zapoya-na-domu-voronezh-xrt.ru]вывод из запоя на дому цена[/url] Печень вообще молчит. Поверьте моему опыту, чем потом скорую вызывать. Проверенный вариант по городу.

  11. A piece that read as the work of someone who reads carefully themselves, and a look at emberstonecommercegallery continued that informed feel, writers who are also serious readers produce work with a different quality and this site reads as the product of someone steeped in good writing rather than just generating content for an audience.

  12. Блин, человек просто не просыхает. Что делать — непонятно. Проверенный вариант — срочный вывод из запоя без лишних вопросов. Там реальные врачи.

Сам через это прошел, чем хоронить близкого. Серьезно ребят.

  13. Now feeling that this site is the kind I want to make sure does not disappear, and a look at fastcartsolutions reinforced that quiet protective feeling, the rare sites whose disappearance would actually matter to me are the sites I want to support through return visits and recommendations and this one has joined that small protected list.

  14. Честно говоря, родственники просто в тупике. Достали уже эти срывы. В этом вопросе главное не слушать советы алконавтов из подворотни. Я нарыл инфу — вывод из запоя на дому.

  16. A piece that read as the work of someone who reads carefully themselves, and a look at driftcovecommerceatelier continued that informed feel, writers who are also serious readers produce work with a different quality and this site reads as the product of someone steeped in good writing rather than just generating content for an audience.

  17. Друзья, бывает же такое горе. Близкий уже неделю не просыхает. Нервов ни у кого нет. В больницу тащить страшно. Короче, врачи толковые попались — адекватный вывод из запоя цены приемлемые. Откачали за час. В общем, смотрите сами по ссылке — нарколог на дом вывод из запоя на дому [url=https://vyvod-iz-zapoya-na-domu-voronezh-zqw.ru]нарколог на дом вывод из запоя на дому[/url] Не тяните.

  18. Now sitting with the thoughts the post triggered rather than rushing on to the next thing, and a stop at nextcartstation extended that reflective pause, content that earns time for thought after closing the tab is content of higher value than the merely interesting and this site has clearly produced that lasting effect today.

  19. Generally I am cautious about recommending sites on first encounter but this one warrants the exception, and a look at halarch reinforced the exception making, the rare site that justifies breaking my normal cautious approach is the rare site worth flagging early and this one has prompted exactly that early flagging response from me.

  20. Comfortable read, finished it without realising how much time had passed, and a look at vergetrophy pulled me into more pages the same way, the absence of friction in good content lets time disappear and that is one of the highest compliments I can pay any piece of writing I find online during a regular search session.

  21. Thank you for keeping the writing honest and the points easy to verify against your own experience, and a stop at salemsolid reflected the same approach, no exaggeration just steady useful content that I can take with me into my own work without second guessing every sentence I happen to read here.

  22. Beyond the topic at hand this site reads as a small ongoing project of taking writing seriously, and a look at meadowharborartisanexchange reinforced that project quality, sites that treat publishing as an ongoing serious practice rather than as content production for traffic are sites worth supporting and this one has clearly chosen the serious approach.

  23. Reading this brought back the satisfaction I used to get from blogs ten years ago, and a stop at sageharborgoodsroom kept that nostalgic quality alive, sites that capture what was good about an earlier era of internet writing are increasingly precious and this one is doing that without feeling like a deliberate throwback at all.

  24. изучение китайского [url=https://kostroma.bezformata.com/listnews/poslovitci-i-chenyuy/160803560/]изучение китайского[/url]

  25. Just dropping by to say thanks for the effort, it does not go unnoticed when a writer cares this much about the reader, and after I went through smartbuyingzone I was certain this is one of the better corners of the internet for this particular kind of content which is genuinely refreshing.

  26. In the middle of an otherwise scattered day this post landed as a moment of focus, and a stop at quickharborartisanexchange extended that focused feeling across more pages, content that anchors a fragmented day rather than contributing to the fragmentation is content with real centring effect and this site is providing that anchoring function for me.

  27. Народ, сталкивался сам с таким — человек уже пятый день под завязку. Дети плачут. Участковый разводит руками. У меня брат так чуть не загнулся. Короче, только это и работает — срочный вывод из запоя круглосуточно. Откачали и спать уложили. В общем, вся инфа вот здесь — снятие интоксикации на дому [url=https://vyvod-iz-zapoya-na-domu-voronezh-jhg.ru]https://vyvod-iz-zapoya-na-domu-voronezh-jhg.ru[/url] Не надейтесь на авось. Здоровье дороже. Перешлите тому кто в беде.

  28. Just dropping by to say thanks for the effort, it does not go unnoticed when a writer cares this much about the reader, and after I went through linenmeadowcommercegallery I was certain this is one of the better corners of the internet for this particular kind of content which is genuinely refreshing.

  29. Started forming counter examples to test the claims and the post handled most of them implicitly, and a look at frostcovecommerceatelier continued that anticipatory style, writers who think two steps ahead of the critical reader save themselves from a lot of follow up work and this writer has clearly internalised that habit consistently.

  30. If you scroll past this site without looking carefully you will miss something, and a stop at byncane extended that mild warning, the surface of the site does not advertise its quality loudly which means careful attention is required to recognise what is being offered here which is itself a kind of editorial signal.

  31. Good quality through and through, no rough edges and no signs of being rushed, and a quick look at gadblow kept the same polish going, the kind of site that respects its own brand by maintaining consistency across pages which is something I always appreciate as a reader looking for trustworthy information online today.

  32. The tone stayed consistent across the whole post which is harder than it looks for longer pieces, and a look at trebleupper continued the same voice, this kind of editorial consistency is a sign of either a single careful writer or a tightly run team and either is impressive today across the broader media environment.

  33. Halfway through reading I knew this would be one to bookmark, and a look at homeneedsonline confirmed that early intuition, when bookmark intent forms before finishing a post you know the writing has cleared a quality bar that most content fails to clear and this site has cleared it on multiple visits already.

  34. Came in skeptical and left mostly convinced, that is the highest praise I can offer, and a look at bitternarbor pushed me further in the same direction, content that survives a critical first read is rare and worth recognising because most blog posts crumble under any real scrutiny these days when you actually pay attention closely.

  35. Following the post through to the end without my attention drifting once, and a look at calicofalcon earned the same uninterrupted attention, content that holds attention without manipulating it is content with substantive pull and this site has demonstrated that substantive pull across multiple pieces in a single reading session reliably here today.

  36. Found this via a link from another piece I was reading and the click was worth it, and a stop at ilefix extended the value across more material, the open web still rewards clicking through citations when the underlying writers care about each other work and this site clearly belongs to that network.

  37. Reading carefully here has reminded me what reading carefully feels like, and a look at cloudbrookvendorfoundry extended that reminder, the experience of careful reading versus skimming is different in ways I had partially forgotten and this site has clearly refreshed my memory of what attention feels like when content rewards it consistently.

  38. Нифига себе проблема, родственники маются. Без вариантов — нужен нормальный вывод из запоя на дому. Врачи с допуском. Короче говоря, нажимайте и читайте — выведение из запоя на дому [url=https://vyvod-iz-zapoya-na-domu-voronezh-xrt.ru]выведение из запоя на дому[/url] Печень вообще молчит. Поверьте моему опыту, чем потом скорую вызывать. Рекомендую эту наркологическую клинику.

  39. Ох уж это, родственники на нервах. Руки опускаются. Проверенный вариант — адекватный вывод из запоя цены указаны. Там реальные врачи. Короче, смотрите сами по ссылке — вывод из запоя цены воронеж [url=https://vyvod-iz-zapoya-na-domu-voronezh-bvc.ru]вывод из запоя цены воронеж[/url] Организм не вывозит. Сам через это прошел, чем потом собирать по кускам. Проверено на своей шкуре.

  40. Solid value packed into a relatively short post, that takes skill, and a look at jebbird continues the dense useful content across more pages, this site clearly understands that respecting reader time is itself a form of generosity which is something most blog operations seem to have forgotten lately across the wider open web.

  41. Bookmark earned, calendar reminder set, share queued, all from one good post, and a look at pineharborcommercegallery did the same, when a single reading session triggers multiple downstream actions you know the content has actually moved me beyond the page and this site is moving me at that higher level reliably.

  42. Now feeling slightly more committed to my own careful reading practices having read this, and a stop at gribrew reinforced that commitment, content that models the kind of attention it deserves is content that calibrates the reader and this site has clearly raised my own bar for what to bring to good writing today.

  43. Now adding this site to a small mental group of recommendations I keep ready for specific kinds of inquiries, and a stop at jibion extended the recommendation readiness, content that I can confidently point friends and colleagues toward in specific contexts is content with real social utility and this site has that utility clearly.

  44. Знаете, куча народу сталкивается. Ситуация аховая. В этом вопросе главное не заниматься самодеятельностью. Нашел нормальный вариант — вывод из запоя цены адекватные. Там работают толковые врачи. Если честно, актуальный прайс и условия тут — стоимость вывода из запоя [url=https://vyvod-iz-zapoya-na-domu-voronezh-kmp.ru]https://vyvod-iz-zapoya-na-domu-voronezh-kmp.ru[/url] Промедление смерти подобно, потому что один финал — реанимация. Сам так спасал брата.

  45. However measured this site clears the bar I set for sites I take seriously, and a stop at goodsparkstore continued clearing that bar, the metrics I use for site quality are admittedly informal but they are consistent and this site has cleared them on multiple measurements across multiple visits which is meaningful for my evaluation.

  46. Блин народ, ситуация просто аховая. Отец не вылезает из бутылки. Думали конец. Скорая не приезжает. Короче, единственное что реально помогло — качественный вывод из запоя на дому. Через час были. В общем, жмите чтобы не потерять — снятие запоя на дому [url=https://vyvod-iz-zapoya-na-domu-voronezh-lnm.ru]https://vyvod-iz-zapoya-na-domu-voronezh-lnm.ru[/url] Промедление смерти подобно. Перешлите другу.

  47. Recommended without hesitation if you care about careful coverage of this topic, and a stop at ivoryridgecraftcollective reinforced the recommendation, the bar I set for unhesitating recommendations is fairly high and this site has cleared it through the cumulative weight of multiple consistently good pieces rather than through any single standout post which is meaningful.

  48. Слушайте, столкнулся с такой ситуацией. Близкий уже неделю не просыхает. Нервов ни у кого нет. В больницу тащить страшно. Короче, только это и работает — адекватный вывод из запоя цены приемлемые. Откачали за час. В общем, жмите чтобы не потерять — срочный вывод из запоя [url=https://vyvod-iz-zapoya-na-domu-voronezh-zqw.ru]срочный вывод из запоя[/url] Не надейтесь на авось. Скиньте кому надо.

  49. Saving this link for the next time someone asks me about this topic, and a look at vitalsummit expanded what I will be sharing with them, this is the kind of resource that makes a real difference when you are trying to point a friend to something useful and reliable rather than generic marketing pages.
