Tanzania’s Independent National Electoral Commission disqualified opposition presidential candidate Luhaga Mpina of ACT-Wazalendo for the second time, reversing a court decision that approved his nomination. The commission, citing an objection from the attorney general, said the party has no recognized presidential ticket for the Oct. 29 election. ACT-Wazalendo said it will challenge the ruling.
