APC to upload Tinubu, running mate’s details to INEC this week, says it will meet July 11 deadline
A senior member of the party’s National Working Committee (NWC), who spoke anonymously, said the upload of candidates’ details to the INEC portal had reached an advanced stage.
The All Progressives Congress (APC) says it is on track to meet the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) July 11 deadline for the submission of its presidential and National Assembly candidates for the 2027 general elections.
A senior member of the party’s National Working Committee (NWC), who spoke anonymously, said the upload of candidates’ details to the INEC portal had reached an advanced stage.
According to the source, the details of President Bola Tinubu and his running mate are expected to be uploaded before the middle of the week.
“We are progressing smoothly with the uploading of the details of our National Assembly candidates. We hope that on or before next Wednesday, we shall upload the details of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and his running mate. We are completely sure of meeting the July 11 deadline,” the source said.
Sources at the APC’s ICT department also disclosed that the details of most principal officers of the 10th National Assembly, several serving lawmakers and four governors who secured senatorial tickets have already been uploaded to the INEC portal.
The development comes after the APC reviewed over 700 petitions filed by aggrieved aspirants following its primaries, leading to the replacement of six senatorial and 19 House of Representatives candidates across several states.
APC National Publicity Secretary, Felix Morka, said the party’s immediate focus is ensuring all approved candidates complete and submit their INEC Form EC9 nomination documents before the deadline, adding that the final list of candidates will be made public at the appropriate time.
