Protest at Kano INEC office over omission of NDC candidates

Supporters of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) held a peaceful protest outside the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) office in Kano on Friday. They demanded that the final list for the 2027 governorship election include the party’s candidate, Aminu Gwarzo, and his running mate, Mustapha Rabiu. The party says it completed all nomination requirements and blames the omission on an INEC computer glitch, which the commission reportedly promised to fix. State Public Relations Officer Yusif Fasaha had urged members to remain calm while party leaders engage with INEC.
