Ahead of governorship election in Anambra state later this year, the Independent National Electoral Commission has released personal particulars of candidates
The publication of the particulars followed the conclusion of party primaries by 16 political parties and the upload of candidates’ nomination forms for the election by the deadline of 6 pm on May 12, 2025, when the dedicated portal automatically shut down.
The Anambra State governorship election is scheduled to hold on Saturday, November 8, 2025.
INEC urged aspirants with reasonable grounds to believe that a candidate provided false information to challenge the nomination of the candidate in court.
It also disclosed that the final list of candidates would be published on June 9, 2025, which is at least 150 days before the election.
This, it said, was in line with the provision of Section 32(1) of the Electoral Act 2022.
