Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>The All Progressives Congress, APC, on Wednesday in Abuja began the sale of Nomination and Expression of Interest forms to party members aspiring to contest the Edo governorship election.<\/p>\n

The forms, according to the party, cost N10 million and N40 million, respectively.<\/p>\n

Aspirants living with disabilities and female aspirants are to pay for the Expression of Interest Form, while the Nomination Form is free for them.<\/p>\n

Youths between 25 and 40 years of age are to buy the Expression of Interest Forms and the Nomination Forms at a 50 per cent discount.<\/p>\n

The off-cycle governorship election will be held in Edo on November 16. Ondo State would also have its election on the same day.<\/p>\n

Clem Agba, a former Minister of State for Budget and National Planning, was the first APC aspirant from Edo to pick up the forms at the party\u2019s national secretariat.<\/p>\n

Henry Idahagbon, a former Attorney-General and Commissioner for Justice in Edo, picked up the forms on behalf of Agba.<\/p>\n

According to a schedule of activities for the Edo governorship election released by APC, the sale forms will end on January 29.<\/p>\n

APC will elect its flag bearer for the governorship race at a primary election to be held on Feb. 17.<\/p>\n
