The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), has published the Notice of Election for 2023 general elections, in compliance with extant provisions of the law.
This was disclosed by the Commission in its daily bulletin issued by the Director of Voter Education, Victor Aluko, in Abuja on Monday. It stated that the official Notice on Monday, published in INEC offices in each state of the Federation and the FCT, contains the date for the election, and the place where the nomination papers are to be delivered.
“As contained in
the Notice, the date for the Presidential and National Assembly elections will
hold on Feb. 25, 2023, while the election for Governorship and State Houses of
Assembly will hold on Saturday March 11, 2023.”
The Commission however
advised political parties to take note stating that the place for delivery of
nomination papers for the elective offices would be at the INEC Headquarters
Maitama, Abuja, via the online portal established for the purpose.
Recall that INEC
unveiled the Timetable and Schedule of activities for the 2023 general election
in Abuja on Friday. This was sequel to the signing into law, the Amendment to
the Electoral Bill by President Muhammadu Buhari on Friday, Feb.25.
