INEC has officially confirmed Machina as the authentic senatorial candidate for Yobe North, 9news Nigeria has learned.
The Independent National Electoral Commission has disassociated itself from the purported primary election which allegedly produced Ahmad Lawan as the APC senatorial candidate for Yobe North and recognised only the May 28, 2023 primary poll that produced Bashir Sheriff Machina as the duly elected APC candidate for the district. The position of the Electoral Umpire was contained in a legally admissible Certified True Copy (CTC) of the INEC report for the primary election dated yesterday, 23rd June 2022.
This has laid to rest the issue of any purported primaries said to have produced Lawan as a senatorial candidate.
