The latest development comes after the NDC attributed the initial omission of its governorship candidate and running mate to an error in the submission of their details.
Dr Yusuf Ibrahim Kofarmata, Secretary of the Kwankwasiyya Caucus and the party’s House of Representatives candidate in Kano, had said in a statement that the NDC received assurances that the omission resulted from an error while entering the candidates’ information.
