The article talks about the disqualification and what that means for those who are interested in running for presidency in Nigeria.
10 APC Presidential Aspirants Disqualified
10 Nigerian Apc Presidential Aspirants were disqualified by the electoral commission on Thursday. This follows the revelation that the commission had not sent out ballot papers to all parts of the country as required by law.
The disqualified candidates are: Senator Ali Ndume, Dr. Amaechi Aluko, Chief Imo State Governor Chitimba Echefu, Femi Fani-Kayode, Bayo Olukayode, Rt. Hon. Olusegun Obasanjo, Rt. Hon. Atiku Abubakar, Dora Akunyili, and Muhammadu Buhari.
Some of these candidates had also been reported to have failed to submit their National Identity Card (NIC) proofs to the commission in time for voting.
All 10 presidential aspirants have until 6pm on Friday to appeal against their disqualification to the Federal High Court in Abuja. If they fail to do so, they will be automatically disqualified and no candidate will be declared winner of the election.
Names Of Apc Presidential Aspirants Disqualified
The names of two presidential aspirants have been disqualified by the electoral commission.
The electoral commission has disqualified the names of two presidential aspirants, PDP’s Ahmadu Bello and APC’s Atiku Abubakar. The disqualification comes after the commission found that they had not registered as political parties before the election. This means that they are not allowed to run for office as PDP or APC candidates.
This is the first time that this has happened in Nigerian history. It is unclear what this will mean for the future of Nigerian politics. It is possible that other candidates will emerge to take their place, or that the two parties will split in half. Either way, it is an interesting development in Nigerian politics.

Nigerian Presidential Aspirants Accidentally Disqualified By The Electoral Commission
The Nigerian Presidential Aspirants have been disqualified by the Electoral Commission. This came as a surprise to many as the nomination process started on the 15th of September and was due to end on the 6th of October. However, it has now been reported that the Commission has disqualified 21 candidates, including the current frontrunner, Muhammadu Buhari.
This development comes as a huge blow to Muhammadu Buhari, who had been leading in all polls until now. It is still too early to say who will be victorious in this race, but this unexpected turn of events could mean that there are multiple contenders for the throne.
