The Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, has said it will validate the membership registers submitted to it by political parties.
Chief Press Secretary to the INEC Chairman, Rotimi Oyekanmi, warned political parties against falsifying its figures on its register, adding that such move will attract disqualification of its candidates.
Oyekanmi noted that the Commission will authenticate the membership register of political parties that opt for direct primaries for nominating their candidates.
INEC had fixed party primaries for April 4 and June 3, and most parties have scheduled their primaries for May.
The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has disqualified two of its 17 presidential aspirants. Chairman of the Screening Committee, David Mark, disclosed this after the conclusion of the exercise at the presidential campaign headquarters of the party in Abuja. Mark, who did not reveal the identities of the disqualified aspirants or the reasons for their disqualification, noted that the aspirants did not meet the requirements set by the panel.
