The All Progressives Congress (APC) has revised its schedule of its activities leading up to the 2023 general election, according to The Cable.
This is the second time the ruling party will make adjustments to its schedule.
In a statement on Tuesday, Suleiman Arugungu, APC national organising secretary, said the congresses to elect LG, state and national congresses will now be held between May 16 and 17.
Before now, the party had fixed May 12 and 14 for that purpose.
He said the screening of aspirants will be held on May 14 for state house of assembly, and May 15 for house of representatives, senate, governorship and presidential.
The primaries for governorship, state houses of assembly, house of representatives, and senate will now be held on May 20, 22, 24 and 25, respectively.
Initially, they were billed to hold between May 18 and 24.
The dates — May 30 to June 1 — for a special convention to pick the ruling party’s presidential flagbearer were not changed.
The party’s nomination and expression of interest forms for presidential aspirants cost N100 million, while governorship hopefuls will pay N50 million.
The price of forms for persons seeking to contest for seats in state houses of assembly is pegged at N2 million, while that of the house of representatives is N10 million, and the senate is N20 million.
