Political parties across Nigeria are making last-minute efforts to upload the names of their candidates ahead of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) July 11 deadline for the 2027 general elections.
CDA News Nigeria reports that while major political parties, including the All Progressives Congress (APC), Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and African Democratic Congress (ADC), said they had successfully uploaded their candidates to the INEC portal, several smaller parties are still battling technical challenges and unresolved internal issues.
The National Chairman of the Because Of Our Tomorrow (BOOT) Party, Sonny Adenuga, disclosed that the party experienced difficulties accessing the INEC portal after receiving its upload code last week. Despite the setback, he expressed confidence that the party would meet the deadline.
According to Adenuga, the technical issues had been reported to INEC for resolution.
Meanwhile, the Labour Party (LP) said it had largely completed the upload process. The party’s National Publicity Secretary, Ken Asogwa, acknowledged that the party initially encountered technical glitches but said the challenges had since been resolved and the exercise was progressing smoothly.
Some political parties are also working to conclude the selection of governorship running mates and resolve disputes arising from their primary elections before the deadline expires.
INEC has maintained that July 11 remains the deadline for the submission of candidates for the 2027 elections.
