Governorship candidates of the All Progressives Congress (APC) will be elected on Friday as the ruling party begins the process that will culminate in the emergence of its presidential candidate on June 1.
Delegates will pick the candidates in the 28 states where governorship elections will hold.
Thirty-seven panels in one for each of the 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) were inaugurated at the party’s national secretariat.
The panels, in addition to conducting the election of delegates, will also screen clear aspirants for House of Assembly elections.
There will be no election in eight states in 2023 where the elections are off-season. These include Bayelsa, Edo, Ondo, Anambra, Kogi, Imo as well as Ekiti and Osun states where elections will take place next month and July.
