The All Progressives Congress, (APC) has again fixed a new date for the conduct of its presidential primary.

Conveying this in a statement by its Acting National Publicity Secretary, Mr Yekini Nabena, the party said Friday, September 28, is the new date for the primary.

The party had initially scheduled the primary for Tuesday, September 25th, then shifted it to Thursday, September 27th before announcing the latest September 28th date.

The statement released on Monday said the party rescheduled the primary for Friday to avoid a clash with Thursday’s Osun State Governorship rerun election.

The statement read, “In view of the Osun State Governorship rerun election which has been scheduled for Thursday, September 27th, 2018, by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), the All Progressives Congress (APC) has now rescheduled the presidential primary election to Friday, September 28th, 2018.

“This is to avoid a clash in dates with the Osun State Governorship rerun election and enable all registered Party members in all thirty-six states of the federation, including the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) participate in the exercise.”
