Niger Republic Govs In Kano Did Not Violate Any Law — INEC

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) said the presence of some governors from Niger Republic ahead of President Muhammadu Buhari’s campaign rally in Kano state did not violate any Nigerian law.

INEC said this while reacting to comments trailing the visit.

Two governors from the country — Issa Moussa of Zinder and Zakiri Umar of Maradi — were part of those who received the president in Kano.

The visit had triggered criticisms from Nigerians who alleged foreign interference in the electoral process.

Uche Secondus, national chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) asked INEC fo disqualify Buhari from the presidential election over the development.

“They came with monies and mercenaries to influence elections in Nigeria,” Secondus alleged on Thursday.
