2027: You’re heading nowhere – Shehu Sani warns candidates affected by Supreme Court ruling

A former lawmaker, Shehu Sani, has urged candidates affected
by the September 24 Supreme Court ruling on provisions of the Electoral Act,
2026, to reconsider their participation in the race.

 

Sanu warned that they may be wasting their time and
resources.

He stated this in a statement posted on his X handle, where
he said supporters of the affected candidates might continue to encourage them
to remain in the race despite the legal implications of the ruling.

According to him, the candidates should not be swayed by
such encouragement, as their continued participation may not lead to the
desired outcome.

“If you are one of those candidates affected by the
September Supreme Court ruling, you shouldn’t waste your time and resources.

“Your supporters will continue to beat the drums for you to
stay in the race but you are heading to nowhere. We have the experience of
losing and winning elections, not as analysts or commentators but as active,
frontline participants so we know both sides very well,” Sani said.
