Ahead of the February 3, 2024 by-elections, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has released a timetable and schedule of activities for the contestants into Senatorial, House of Representatives and State Assemblies seats.
The announcement follows the earlier release of the election dates by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
The sale of nominations, expression of interest and delegates forms will begin on December 28, 2023, and end on January 3, 2024, while primary elections are scheduled to be held on January 9, 2024.
The PDP pegged the price for the Expression of Interest and Nomination forms for the Senate, House of Representatives, and House of Assembly at N3.5m, N2.5m and N600,000 respectively.
To encourage inclusivity and diversity, the opposition party has implemented concessionary measures.
Female aspirants and those living with disabilities can skip the expression of interest fee and pay only the nomination form cost.
Similarly, the party offers a 50% discount on the nomination form fee for aspirants under 40 years old, although they will still need to pay the full price for the expression of interest form.
