The Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) has voiced strong objections to the Independent National Electoral Commission’s (INEC) exclusion of Professor Ibrahim Isa Ali Pantami’s name from the list of candidates for the governorship election in Gombe. Pantami is the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), having won a court-ordered re-run primary. MURIC alleges that this omission constitutes both an act of impunity and a disregard for the court’s directive. The group is demanding immediate action to rectify the situation and ensure Pantami’s name is included on the ballot for the Gombe 2027 gubernatorial election. This dispute raises concerns about the integrity of the electoral process in Gombe. The organization believes INEC must respect the judicial process and the rights of candidates. This matter is developing and further updates are expected from Vanguard News.
