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. Speaking honestly this is among the better discoveries of my recent browsing, and a stop at gypsyaspen reinforced that discovery quality, the ranking of recent discoveries is informal but meaningful and this site has placed near the top of that ranking based on the consistency of quality across what I have already read carefully.

  3. Got something practical out of this that I can apply later this week, and a stop at borealbarley added more details to think about, this is exactly the kind of content I bookmark for future reference rather than the throwaway listicles that dominate most search results these days for almost any common topic.

  4. Reading this slowly and letting each paragraph land before moving on, and a stop at shorevolume 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.

  5. Grateful for posts like this one, they remind me there are still places online run by people who care about quality, and a look at dyleko reflected the same standards, you can tell the difference between content made for readers and content made just for search engines today and this is the former.

  6. Друзья ситуация жуткая. Попал я в переплёт конкретный. Брат пьёт без остановки. Соседи стучат в дверь. В диспансер везти — учёт на всю жизнь.

  7. The use of plain language without dumbing down the topic was really well done, and a look at cargofeather continued in that same accessible style, this is something many technical writers fail at because they either confuse their readers or condescend to them but here neither problem appears at all which is impressive really.

  8. Worth your time, that is the simplest endorsement I can give, and a stop at almondeider extends that endorsement across the rest of the site, this is one of those increasingly rare places that delivers on what it promises rather than over selling the content and under delivering on substance every time which I find frustrating elsewhere.

  9. Decided to subscribe to the RSS feed if there is one, and a stop at shopplusstore confirmed that decision, content that I want delivered to me proactively rather than just remembered when I have time is content that has earned a higher level of commitment from me as a reader looking for reliable sources.

  10. Now adding the writer to a small mental list of voices I want to follow, and a look at bayougourd reinforced that follow intention, the few writers whose work I actively track are writers who have demonstrated sustained quality and this writer has clearly demonstrated that sustained quality across the pieces I have sampled here today.

  11. Refreshing to read something where the words actually mean something instead of filling space, and a stop at cloverdahlia kept that going, the writing here trusts the reader to follow along without endless repetition or constant reminders of what was already said earlier in the post which I appreciate.

  12. Found a couple of useful angles in here I had not considered before reading carefully, and a quick stop at vitalsnippet added more, this is one of those sites where the value compounds the more you read rather than peaking at one viral post and then offering nothing else of substance afterwards which is common.

  13. Definitely a recommend from me, anyone curious about the topic should check this out, and a look at kettlecrestcraftcollective adds even more reason for that, the depth and quality combine to make this site one I will be pointing people toward whenever similar conversations come up over the months ahead at work or socially.

  14. A piece that brought a sense of order to a topic I had been finding chaotic, and a look at jadkix continued that organising effect, content that imposes useful structure on messy subjects is doing genuine intellectual work and this site is providing that organisational function across multiple posts I have read recently here.

  15. Самарцы привет. Попал я в переплёт конкретный. Муж просто пропадает. Жена в слезах. В диспансер везти — учёт на всю жизнь. Короче, нормальные врачи нашлись — вывод из запоя дешево и сердито.

  16. Probably the kind of site that should be more widely read than it appears to be, and a look at caramelcovemerchantgallery reinforced that quiet wish, the gap between a sites quality and its apparent reach is sometimes large and that gap exists for this site in a way that makes me want to mention it more.

  17. Definitely a recommend from me, anyone curious about the topic should check this out, and a look at holcap adds even more reason for that, the depth and quality combine to make this site one I will be pointing people toward whenever similar conversations come up over the months ahead at work or socially.

  18. Decided to set a calendar reminder to revisit, and a stop at berryharborcommercegallery extended that revisit list, calendar entries for content are a level of commitment I rarely make but when I do they signal a higher regard than a simple bookmark and this site has earned that calendar tier of relationship from me today.

  19. Well structured and easy to read, that combination is rarer than people think, and a stop at quickharbormerchantgallery confirmed the same standard runs across the rest of the site, definitely the kind of place I will be coming back to when this topic comes up in conversation later again over the weeks ahead.

  20. Ребята привет. Столкнулся с такой бедой. Муж просто исчезает в бутылке. Жена рыдает. Скорая не едет на такие вызовы. Короче, нормальные врачи попались — доступный вывод из запоя цены адекватные. Приехали быстро.

  21. Came away with a small but real shift in perspective on the topic, and a stop at summitshire pushed that shift a bit further, the kind of subtle reframing that good writing does to a reader without making a big deal of it is something I always appreciate when it happens which is sadly not that often.

  22. Ребята всем привет. Жесть случилась полная. Муж просто пропадает. Соседи стучат в дверь. Скорая не едет. Короче, только это и спасло — адекватный вывод из запоя цены нормальные.

  23. Picked up something useful for a side project, and a look at syrupspire added another piece I will incorporate, content that connects to specific projects I am working on is content with practical utility and the practical utility of this site is showing up across multiple posts I have read in the last hour or so.

  24. A modest masterpiece in its own quiet way, and a look at shopeasestore confirmed the same quiet quality across the rest of the site, calling something a masterpiece is usually overstating but for content this carefully crafted the word feels appropriate even if the writers themselves would probably resist the label honestly.

  25. Народ привет. Столкнулся с настоящей бедой. Муж просто исчез в бутылке. Соседи уже стучат. Скорая не приезжает на такие вызовы. Короче, только это и спасло — срочный вывод из запоя круглосуточно. Приехали через час. В общем, сохраняйте на будущее — помощь вывода запоя [url=https://vyvod-iz-zapoya-na-domu-voronezh-ayu.ru]https://vyvod-iz-zapoya-na-domu-voronezh-ayu.ru[/url] Не надейтесь на авось. Перешлите тому кому надо.

  26. Just want to acknowledge that the writing here is doing something right, and a quick visit to unicorntempo confirmed the same standards run across the broader site, recognising good work is something I try to do when I find it because the alternative is silence and silence rewards mediocrity.

  27. Reading this in a quiet coffee shop matched the calm energy of the writing, and a stop at syrupserif extended that environmental match, content that has its own ambient quality which can match or clash with surroundings is content with a personality and this site has the kind of personality that suits calm reading.

  28. Народ привет. Столкнулся с такой бедой. Муж просто убивает себя. Соседи стучат в дверь. В диспансер везти — на всю жизнь учёт. Короче, единственное что реально помогло — профессиональный вывод из запоя на дому. Поставили систему.

  29. After several visits I am now confident this site is one to follow seriously, and a stop at banyaneagle reinforced that confidence, the gradual building of trust through repeated quality exposures is the only sustainable way to develop reader loyalty and this site is building that loyalty in me through patient consistent work consistently.

  30. Recommended without hesitation if you care about careful coverage of this topic, and a stop at rubyorchardcraftcollective 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.

  31. Really liked the calm tone running through the post, no shouting and no urgency forced into the writing, and a look at primevaluecorner kept that quiet confidence going, the kind of voice that makes the reader feel respected rather than yelled at which is depressingly common across most modern blog content these days.

  32. Самарцы привет. Попал я в переплёт конкретный. Брат пьёт без остановки. Соседи стучат в дверь. Платные клиники просят бешеные деньги.

Перешлите тому кому надо.

  33. Felt like the post had been edited rather than just drafted and published, and a stop at silverumber suggested the same care across the site, the difference between edited and unedited content is enormous for the reader and this site has clearly invested in the editing pass that most blogs skip entirely which really does show up.

  34. Most blog writing on this subject reaches for the same handful of arguments and this post avoided them, and a look at siskastencil continued the original treatment, content that finds its own path through territory other writers have flattened is content with real authorial energy and this site has plenty of that distinctive energy.

  35. Started thinking about my own writing differently after reading, and a look at plumcoveartisanexchange continued that reflective effect, content that influences how I work rather than just informing what I know is content with the highest kind of impact and this site has triggered some of that reflective influence today on me.

  36. Слушайте что расскажу. Жесть случилась полная. Муж просто пропадает. Жена в слезах. Скорая не едет. Короче, только это и спасло — анонимный вывод из запоя без последствий. Приехали через час.

  37. Just wanted to drop a quick note saying this was a useful read on a topic I have been circling, no fluff, and a stop at carobburlap added a few extra points that fit the same simple style which makes the whole site feel coherent rather than thrown together by many different writers with different goals.

  38. Reading this gave me a small mental break from the heavier reading I had been doing, and a stop at bayougourd extended that lighter feel, content that provides relief without becoming trivial is harder to produce than people realise and this site has clearly figured out how to be light without being shallow at all.

  39. Quality writing that respects the reader’s intelligence without overloading them, and a quick look at ekomug reflected that approach, a balanced thoughtful site that earns trust by being consistent rather than by shouting about how trustworthy it is which is the usual approach online sadly across most content categories.

  40. Felt like the writer was speaking directly to someone with my level of curiosity, neither talking down nor showing off, and a stop at shopwavemarket kept that comfortable matching going, finding writing that meets you where you are rather than asking you to climb up or stoop down feels great every time it happens.

  41. A piece that built up gradually rather than front loading its main points, and a look at alpinecobble maintained the same gradual structure, content that trusts the reader to reach conclusions through accumulating reasoning is more persuasive than content that announces conclusions and then defends them and this site uses the persuasive approach.

  42. Appreciate how nothing here feels copied or pieced together from other places, the voice is consistent and the tone stays human, and after I checked tarotshire I noticed the same style holds, which is a small detail but it makes the whole experience feel personal rather than like another generic site.

  43. Got pulled in by the headline and stayed because the content actually delivered on the promise, and a stop at sambasavor kept that trust intact, when a site lives up to its own framing it earns the right to keep showing up in my browser tabs going forward indefinitely from here on out really.

  44. Excellent execution from start to finish, the post never loses its rhythm and the points stay sharp, and a quick stop at flintanchor kept the same level going, consistency like this across a site is the marker of a serious operation rather than a casual side project running on autopilot somewhere else.

  45. Народ выручайте. Жесть случилась полная. Муж просто пропадает. Дети не спят ночами. Скорая не едет. Короче, только это и спасло — вывести из запоя на дому качественно. Приехали через час.

  46. Approaching this with the usual skepticism I bring to new sites and being slowly persuaded, and a stop at lanternorchardartisanexchange continued that gradual persuasion, the careful path from skeptical reader to genuine fan is the only one I trust and this site has walked me along that path through patient consistent quality across pieces.

  47. Honest assessment after reading this twice is that it holds up under careful attention, and a look at jazbox extended that durability across more pages, content that survives a second read without revealing weak spots is rarer than the average reader probably realises and this site clearly cleared that bar.

  48. A small thank you note from me to the team behind this work, the post earned it, and a stop at horcall suggested more thanks would be in order over time, recognising the people who do good writing online is something I try to remember to do because the alternative is silence and silence rewards mediocrity unfortunately.

  49. A piece that respected the reader by not over explaining the obvious, and a look at brightharbormerchantgallery continued that calibrated approach, finding the right level of explanation is one of the harder editorial calls and this site has clearly thought carefully about what readers will already know versus what they need help with consistently.

  50. Друзья ситуация. Столкнулся с такой бедой. Отец не выходит из штопора. Жена рыдает. Скорая не едет на такие вызовы. Короче, нормальные врачи попались — доступный вывод из запоя цены адекватные.
