Over 70 out of the 91 political parties are presenting presidential candidates that will participate in the 2019 Presidential elections, The PUNCH can report.

Our correspondent, who visited the FCT office of the Independent National Electoral Commission on Thursday, reported that over 70 names had been posted as of Thursday night.


The list was posted with INEC’s timetable which fixed October 25 for the publication of candidates of political parties across the country.

Some of the candidates include: President Muhammadu Buhari of the All Progressives Congress, former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party, Obadiah Mailafia of the African Democratic Congress, and former Governor Donald Duke of the Social Democratic Party.


A source at INEC said the figure might be higher than 70.

He said, “So far, over 70 candidates have been counted. A more comprehensive list will be published on Friday.”

The source said the ballot paper for the presidential election would also be long, adding that the announcement of election results in 2019 might even take longer.


Meanwhile, the various candidates’ credentials were made available to journalists on Thursday.

Buhari again failed to attach necessary supporting documents, insisting that they were in the custody of the military.

In the affidavit which he swore to, Buhari said, “I am the above named person and the deponent of this affidavit herein. All my academic qualification documents as filled in my Presidential form, APC/001/2015 are currently with the Secretary of the Military Board as of the time of this affidavit.”


On his part, Atiku submitted all relevant documents, with a Diploma in Law in 1969 from the Ahmadu Bello University being his highest qualification.

The former Vice-President also attached tax returns indicating that he had paid N10.8m in tax from 2015 to 2017 while declaring his income within the period as N60.2m.

But, this old scam called Buhari, anytime you ask him, he will tell you the military is with his certificate, shameful.

How come the military is not with OBJ's , IBB, David Mark and other military Generals

If your still supporting this scam Buhari, your just a CAPITAL FOOL.

This man is a big disgrace.

Is the military in the space or in Jupiter?


If others are prosecuted because of certificate, I think we will do well to subject our Dullardino to same process.

Scammer!

You hypocrites should leave him alone,atleast you didn't care about Atiku's corruption cases either and the fact that he is barred from entering United State

Hmmm



Anything goes here


Ever Wonder why the place is a shlthole

The military must produce the credentials this time. The reason why we are in this mess is because we left the leadership of this country in the hands of illitrates.

Inec must compel the military to produce the documents

Corruption?


Last I checked he was Buhari right hand man in 2015

Sing us another song

We don't care if he can't go to the U.S he is the president of Nigeria and not America

Buhari that went . got insulted

AGNESikpuNNU:

Una don start again? NEPA BILL in 2019 again?

He is still better than the shoeless PHD holder who supervised the most corrupt government in the History of Nigeria

This can only happen in Nigeria. A commander in Chief on Nigeria Armed Forces can not get his certificate from the Military after 3 years of being in power. Well maybe he is referring to Ghanaian Army.

isn't he the commander in chief of the armed forces?

BABA no talk too much Sai Baba 2019

Lateralmaths:
isn't he the commander in chief of the armed forces?

Don't mind them they don't have respect

Lol

what w need is d performance in u which u are doing... certificates belong to the academics

If the army can't produce WAEC, at least NEPA can produce a bill.

SMH

we re no longer interested in ur certificate. more interested in ur homecoming

This man called Buhari is a blessing to all the posters above me but sadly they lack respect and prefer to go for a serial looter

Actually we care.

We resultantly asked you and your visionless party of propaganda to institute a corruption case against him if there are evidence, but up till today, you guys only make noise, you didn't find any evidence.

But for Buhari, he was accused and sued, and your integrity champion hired SANs to stop the court from compelling him to enter military office and bring out his smallest certificate, WAEC.

Shame on you. Shame!

Why not just prove the doubters wrong and get the credentials. Or just forge one.

Certificate less man with cows that refuse to multiply and we wonder why his leadership is a sinking ship? This man's gat nothing to offer.
