APC denies viral report on 2027 nomination form prices

The All Progressives Congress (APC) has debunked a widely circulated report claiming the party has released the prices for its expression of interest and nomination forms ahead of the 2027 general elections.

A graphic shared on social media on Friday alleged that presidential aspirants would be required to pay N200 million, while those vying for state assembly seats would pay N20 million for nomination forms.

In a statement on Saturday, the APC National Publicity Secretary, Felix Morka, dismissed the report as completely false, stressing that it did not originate from the party.

“The attention of the All Progressives Congress (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,” he said. “The APC states categorically that the report is FAKE and did not emanate from the Party.”

Morka further explained that the party has not taken any decision or issued any announcement regarding the sale or pricing of nomination forms for 2027.

“To be clear, no decision or announcement has been made on the sale or pricing of forms for the 2027 elections,” he emphasized, describing the circulating figures as “a mere figment of the writer’s mischievous imagination.”

The ruling party urged its members, journalists, and the general public to disregard the report entirely.
