The Presidency on Saturday criticised representatives of the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of Nigeria for their conduct during a recent meeting with President Bola Tinubu, insisting that the clerics are not the sole custodians of the truth about the state of the nation.
Also, the Independent National Electoral Commission released the final list of candidates for the 2027 general elections, bringing months of political uncertainty to an end.
Several prominent politicians, including former President Goodluck Jonathan, whom the Tanimu Turaki-led faction of the Peoples Democratic Party claimed to have presented to INEC as its presidential candidate, did not make the final list. Senator Ned Nwoko was also absent.
These and many other major developments are the trending stories this morning.
