BREAKING: APC Picks New Date For Presidential Primary Election
The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) on Wednesday said that its presidential primary election will now hold on May 29.
TRIXX NG learnt that this latest development was announced by the party’s Publicity Secretary, Barrister Felix Morka, in a press statement.
The other primary elections were also rescheduled.
The new dates were ratified by the party’s National Working Committee (NWC) at its meeting on Wednesday afternoon.
The statement read, “The National Working Committee of the All Progressives Congress on Wednesday, 18th of May, 2022, approved an adjusted Timetable/Schedule of Activities for the Governorship, State House of Assembly, House of Representatives, Senate and Presidential primaries and appeals as follows:
“Governorship and House of Representatives – Thursday, 26th of May, 2022.
“Senate and House of Assembly – Friday, 27th of May, 2022.
“For election appeals: Governorship and House of Representatives – Friday, 27th of May, 2022.
“Senate and House of Assembly – Saturday, 28th of May, 2022.
“Special convention for presidential primaries holds Sunday 29th – Monday, 30th of May, 2022.”
Recall on Monday, the APC had denied postponing its 2023 election timetable. At the time, it said that its schedule of activities in respect of the 2023 elections remain the same.
In a statement on Monday night by Barr. Morka, the party stated that news that it has tweaked its timetable is fake. But going by his press release today, the election timetable has indeed been tweaked.
