INEC final list of candidates (Presidential), published 2026-09-12 — SN 15; INEC name: RABIU KABIRU; age 80; male; qualification (as declared to INEC): FLSC GRADE II B.A Running mate to Donald Duke on the Peoples Redemption Party (PRP) ticket, as a substitute nominee. When INEC displayed the candidates' particulars (Form EC9) on 1 August 2026, the PRP running mate was Buba Musa (The Punch, TG News, 2 August 2026). The PRP replaced him with Kabiru Rabiu before the substitution window for presidential and National Assembly candidates closed on Saturday 22 August 2026; the day of the substitution was not published, and no party statement announcing it was found. The Nation and Ripples Nigeria (13 September 2026) reported that the PRP "replaced Baba Musa with Rabiu Kabiru as running mate". The Nigerian Tribune (31 August and 1 September 2026) named "Ambassador Kabiru Rabiu" as the PRP vice-presidential candidate at the G100 opposition summit in Abuja on 31 August 2026, the earliest dated report of him in the role. INEC's final list of 12 September 2026 confirms the ticket (SN 15); at 80 he is the oldest vice-presidential candidate on it. "FLSC" on the list is a transposition of FSLC. Poll day is 16 January 2027. A running mate is nominated, not elected at a primary.
