The All Progressives Congress (APC) has completed the electronic submission of candidates for all elective positions ahead of the 2027 general elections, surpassing the deadline set by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC). The party's National Chairman, Prof Nentawe Yilwatda, announced this on Sunday, highlighting the organization's readiness for governance.
The APC's submission covered positions ranging from state Houses of Assembly to the presidential election, demonstrating its internal coordination and preparedness. The party had submitted the candidates before the original deadline of August 8, 2026, which was subsequently extended by three days to August 11, 2026, due to appeals from some political parties.
Yilwatda emphasized that the timely completion of the candidate upload showcased the party's organizational strength and capacity to manage a complex electoral process. He urged voters to consider the party's internal organization and compliance with electoral rules, rather than solely relying on campaign promises.
