APC dismisses fake candidate list as unauthorised
The All Progressives Congress (APC) has officially distanced itself from a list of purported successful candidates from its recently concluded primaries that is currently circulating in the public domain. The party described the document as fake and unauthorised, urging members, stakeholders, and the general public to disregard it entirely.
Felix Morka, the party's National Publicity Secretary, issued a statement on Sunday clarifying that the APC has not released any official list of successful candidates from its recently conducted primaries. “The APC hereby informs the general public that it has not released the official list of successful candidates from its recently-conducted primaries,” Morka stated.
Official channels to be used for candidate notification
According to the party, successful candidates will be notified through official channels and will be issued certificates of return in accordance with established procedures. Party sources indicated that internal collation and verification are still ongoing, following the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) window for political parties to upload candidate names ahead of the 2027 general elections.
The APC urged all members and the public to rely only on official communications from the party's national secretariat and to ignore any unauthorised publications. The party remains committed to transparent and credible internal processes as it prepares for the upcoming elections.
