Hamza YakubuGuestLukman Awol AgunuHostUh, I think, uh, like the, the, the ultimatum that I talked about-
I think it just, I think it came barely hours before INEC explanation.
many people were actually not, uh, informed of, uh, what actually transpired, why some people made the list and others.
But, uh, later, the commission now came out to say that, uh, it followed the Supreme Court, uh, judgment.
And I think, uh, for those that have not been following the process, I think the Supreme Court judgment-
... talked about, uh, the submission of, uh, party, political parties register, and those that were not members of, uh, the party just before the primaries.
Because, uh, if you look at it, many of those that were affected, uh, were some that, uh, actually joined the party, maybe after losing out in other political parties and then, uh, came into the party, picked the ticket, and then tried to contest election.
I think, uh, that is what happened to some of, uh, some of them.
You know, if you carry, if you look specifically like, uh, in the case of, uh, uh, Pantami-
And then that from, from the INEC perspective, that was their explanation.
I don't know this, uh, Supreme, INEC say that they are following the Supreme Court, uh, judgment.
But whether, just like we're talking about ultimatum, whether these people will still approach the court to ask to also give a final verdict is left to be seen.
Maybe the coming days will determine actually after the expiration of their ultimatum.
