I think The 2022 electoral law as amended have corrected that

It is now the running mate

But if the death occurred before the election, the party can nominate another candidate

Ok, I never knew.

In the case of kogi state election is still ongoing, and if a candidate dies, disqualified or resign the second aspirant Shall take over.. notes.. that was before that section is amended. As it is . If a candidate dies, disqualified or resign before election are concluded. Fresh primaries election will be conducted. example is ABIA state when PDP candidate dies there was another fresh primaries election because of the amendment. Go back to history before it was amended. In1998 when OBASANJO pick ATIKU as Vice president already ATIKU won Adamawa state governorsip election, but his deputy Mr boni haruna was sworn in as governor why? Because election has been concluded in that state. don't get your self confused with English, kogi state election not concluded, while Adamawa state election was concluded

In the case of Kogi. Was the guy declared winner before he died? I thought he was leading but died before official declaration by INEC so he was still a mere contestant.

His side chic

Obidients are imagining nonsense against Otti because he scolded Obi for being stupid.

One of the big political achievement of tinubu that made him president elect.
He allowed the party to decide the direction the party wanted.

The parties would use the "holes" in the constitution to take their decision.

No bye election

All those referencing the Kogi case are missing the point.

The late Audu, though was leading had not yet been declared winner by INEC as at time of his death, and that is why it was contested by then opposition.

If however the candidate has been officially returned by INEC - which is why he's governor-elect in first place, then it's a no-brainer - he's as good as the substantive Chief executive pending his swearing in. If any thing happens (heaven forbid) his vice automatically takes over.

It's very clear

Ask Kogi State
Faleke losed out. Big time

OP,
Why is your Question NOT what happens when a PRESIDENT-SELECT......😎

Anyways, Tinubu will NOT last in Aso Rock.

Shettima or Peter Obi will Takeover soon.

Anything can happen. A person that didn't contest in the election at all can become Governor if he is connected. You can call Yahaya Bello for updates

Case study,Kogi state

The electoral act 2022 was written so that what happened in Kogi will never happen again.

If it happened now the elected deputy will be sworn in as governor

yarimo:
The duputy governor elect shall be sworn in as governer

Are you sure? See the case of Kogi State that brought in Yahaya Bello

The case of kogi state election is on going not concluded, if election are concluded. The deputy or Vice president Shall be sworn in . In 1998 ATIKU won Adamawa state governorsip election when he was pick as Vice president to OBASANJO his deputy Mr boni haruna was sworn in as governor of Adamawa state why? Because elections are concluded. But as it's due to some electoral act amendment, if a candidate or winner dies before election were concluded fresh primaries election will take place. Abai state is an example when the governorship candidate dies another fresh primaries was conducted unlike before the act was amended when candidate dies, disqualified or resign second aspirant will take over like in the Case of kogi state.
