From KABIRU YUSUF,Abuja
THE Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) may have put paid its earlier stand to disqualify Vice President Atiku Abubakar from contesting as presidential candidate of the AC when his name was conspicuously omitted from the list of presidential candidates it announced yesterday.
This is contrary to an Abuja High Court ruling that only a competent court of law could disqualify a candidate in accordance with the constitution.
