By Henry Umoru

ABUJA — The New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP) has announced the completion of the upload of its presidential candidate’s details on the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) portal, while the process for governorship and State House of Assembly candidates has commenced.

The party said the exercise was being carried out in line with electoral guidelines and would continue until August 8, 2026, when the process is expected to end and pave the way for substitutions and replacements.

Addressing journalists on Tuesday in Abuja, NNPP National Chairman, Dr. Agbo Major, said the party had also secured the restoration of its original logo on the INEC portal following a legal dispute over the party’s identity.
