The All Progressives Congress has said the failure of opposition political parties to meet the Independent National Electoral Commission deadline for the submission of candidates for the 2027 presidential and National Assembly elections reflects what it described as their lack of preparedness for the polls.
In a statement issued via its X handle on Sunday by its National Publicity Secretary, Felix Morka, the ruling party said it successfully met the electoral commission’s July 11 deadline for uploading the names of its candidates despite having a larger number of contestants across elective positions.
“The All Progressives Congress is pleased to announce that it successfully met the Independent National Electoral Commission’s (INEC) deadline for the submission of names of its candidates for the 2027 Presidential and National Assembly elections.
“Our great Party satisfied this requirement despite the large number of Party candidates contesting on the Party’s platform for the various elective offices,” the statement read.
