Labour Party has said it successfully uploaded names of its presidential, vice-presidential and National Assembly candidates before the 14 July deadline given by Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to do so.
The party made the clarification in a statement issued by its National Publicity Secretary, Ken Asogwa, in Abuja on Wednesday.
Mr Asogwa said reports alleging failure to upload its presidential and vice-presidential candidates before the deadline were false, misleading and without factual basis.
He said that the names of its presidential, Chibuzo Okereke, and vice-presidential candidates Bintu Konto, were uploaded on 10 July, four days before INEC closed its nomination portal.
Mr Asogwa said that the submission was completed seamlessly and in full compliance with INEC’s nomination guidelines and procedures.
