APC denies N200m nomination form prices for 2027 elections

The All Progressives Congress has dismissed as false reports circulating on social media claiming it had fixed prices for expression of interest and nomination forms ahead of the 2027 general elections.

The party described the widely shared graphic, which suggested that presidential aspirants would pay N200m and state assembly hopeful N20m, as misleading and unauthorised.

In a statement issued on Saturday, Felix Morka, the national publicity secretary said the report did not emanate from the party.

“The attention of the APC has been drawn to a false and misleading report circulating in sections of the media regarding a purported ‘price list’ for expression of interest and nomination forms for the 2027 general elections.

“The APC states categorically that the report is FAKE, and did not emanate from the Party,” he said.

Morka clarified that the party had not taken any decision regarding the sale or pricing of nomination forms for the forthcoming elections.

“To be clear, no decision or announcement has been made on the sale or pricing of forms for the 2027 elections,” he added.

He further described the publication as “a mere figment of the writer’s mischievous imagination,” urging party members, the media and the general public to disregard it entirely.
