Shehu Sani Warns 2027 Hopefuls Affected by Supreme Court Ruling

Former Kaduna Central Senator Shehu Sani has advised candidates whose nominations may be affected by the Supreme Court’s September 24 ruling on the Electoral Act, 2026, to reconsider staying in the 2027 race. He said continuing their campaigns could amount to a waste of time and resources if the ruling creates legal obstacles to their candidacy. Sani added that supporters may continue urging such candidates to contest, but argued that politicians with potential legal disqualification should take the implications of the ruling seriously. The decision has raised concerns among parties and aspirants preparing for the 2027 general elections.
