No fewer than 54 serving and former political office holders are to be prevented from contesting the 2011 poll by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) and other security agencies.
These include those who are at present standing trial.
Others are those who have their cases already investigated and completed.
To this end, the Anti-Corruption Coordinating Forum (ACCF) would soon be reconvened, like the case in 2007, to screen the list.
The ACCF comprises the EFCC, ICPC, Code of Conduct Bureau, SSS and the Nigeria Police Force.
