In compliance with existing provisions of the Nigerian law, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) in its daily bulletin issued by the Director of Voter Education, Victor Aluko, in Abuja on Monday published the Notice of Election for the forthcoming 2023 general elections.
According to the electoral umpire, the official notice on Monday, published in INEC offices in each state of the Federation and the Federal Capital Territory, contains the date for the election, and the place where the nomination papers are to be delivered.
It said “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.”
INEC advised political parties to take note 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.
The electoral body had unveiled the Timetable and Schedule of activities for the 2023 general elections in Abuja on Friday.
