The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) is facing calls to reconsider the February 20, 2027, date announced for the general elections, as it coincides with the holy month of Ramadan.

Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar and other prominent Nigerians have expressed concerns that holding elections during this period may disenfranchise millions of Muslim voters, citing the physical demands of fasting and spiritual obligations.

Critics argue that fixing elections during Ramadan reflects poor judgment and a lack of sensitivity to Nigeria’s socio-religious realities. INEC has acknowledged the concerns and is undertaking consultations, with the possibility of seeking legislative intervention to adjust the dates.

Former Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai Has Fingered National Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu As The ‘Brain’ Behind His Attempted Arrest At The Nnamdi Azikiwe Airport, Abuja, On Thursday After Returning From A Trip To Cairo, Egypt.

Speaking To Former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar, Who Paid A Solidarity Visit To Him Last Night At His Residence, El-Rufai Revealed That The ICPC And DSS Not EFCC Operatives Accosted And Tried To Whisk Him Away.

In His Words; “It Turned Out That It’s The ICPC That Procured DSS To Abduct Me And Handed Me Over To Them. The ICPC Has Never Invited Me. We Just Understand That It’s ICPC Not EFCC That’s Responsible For What Happened Today And The ICPC Chairman Is Acting Of The Direct Order Of Nuhu Ribadu.”

In Response, Atiku Sympathized With Him Adding That They Must Build A Viable Opposition To Fight President Tinubu In 2027.

“We Must Come Together And Form A Very Viable Opposition Because Tinubu Is Determined To Turn Nigeria Into A One-Party System.”
