The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has announced an extension of the sale and submission deadlines for nomination forms for aspirants seeking to contest on the party’s platform ahead of the 2027 general elections.
The decision, communicated through official party channels, offers prospective candidates additional time to obtain and return their expression of interest and nomination forms — a move many political observers say reflects the high volume of interest recorded across various elective positions.
The extension is expected to accommodate aspirants who may have faced logistical or financial challenges meeting the earlier deadlines, particularly those vying for positions at the federal, state, and local government levels.
APC’s National Working Committee is said to be managing the process closely to ensure transparency and orderly conduct ahead of the party’s primaries.
Political watchers note that the development signals the APC’s determination to conduct an inclusive and well-organised exercise as it positions for a decisive 2027 electoral campaign.
New deadlines are expected to be published on official APC platforms shortly.
