The Independent National Electoral Commission has released names of 18 candidates vying for Nigeria’s top political position.
Bola Ahmed Tinubu, All Progressives Congress; Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party; Peter Obi, of the Labour Party, and 15 others made the list as contenders for president in the upcoming 2023 election.
The circular issued by the electoral commission on Tuesday included information about the candidates’ backgrounds, ages, and other characteristics.
In contrast to the hypothetical proposal of the renowned flutist and former President of the Performing Musicians Association of Nigeria, PMAN, Tee Mac Omatshola Iseli, Tinubu is 70 years old, as was accurately noted in the circular.
Tinubu was said to be older than he claimed to be, according to Tee. The former governor of Lagos was 86 years old, not 70, according to Tee Mac, who claimed that he was an in-law of Tinubu.
However, the case is over after reading INEC’s report today. The impartial organization listed BSC in Business Administration as his qualification.
Shettima Kashim, Tinubu’s running mate, is 55 years old and has a B.Sc. in agriculture, a General Certificate of Education, and a Primary school diploma.
While Obi Peter Gregory, a 61-year-old member of the Labour Party, filed an FSLC WASC/GCE degree. Baba Ahmed Yusuf Datti, his running mate, is 53 years old and holds a PhD in FSLC GCE.
Atiku, a 75-year-old PDP candidate, exhibited GCE and Masters degrees. Okowa Arthur Ifeanyi, his running buddy, is 63 years old and has an HSC in medicine.
