The All Progressives Congress (APC) has approved a fresh extension of deadlines for the sale and submission of Expression of Interest and Nomination Forms ahead of the 2027 general elections.
In a statement issued on Monday, the party’s National Publicity Secretary, Felix Morka, said the adjustment also affects the screening schedule for aspirants.
According to the APC, the sale of forms has now been extended to midnight on Wednesday, May 6, 2026, while submission of completed forms will close at midnight on Thursday, May 7, 2026.
“The screening of aspirants will take place from Friday, May 8, to Tuesday, May 12, 2026, with the publication of screened aspirants scheduled for Wednesday, May 13, 2026,” the statement said.
The latest revision follows an earlier timetable released by the party, which had fixed April 25 to May 2 for the sale of forms and May 4 as the submission deadline.
The APC said the adjustments are in line with its internal processes and the broader electoral framework, including provisions of the Constitution, the Electoral Act 2026, and the timetable issued by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
The party had also announced designated bank accounts for the purchase of nomination forms as part of efforts to streamline its preparations for the 2027 polls.
