The All Progressives Congress (APC) has rescheduled its House of Representatives primary election from Friday, May 15, to Saturday, May 16, as part of ongoing preparations for the 2027 general elections.

The party’s National Publicity Secretary, Mr. Felix Morka, announced the development in a statement issued on Thursday in Abuja.

Morka explained that only the House of Representatives primary was affected by the adjustment, while the dates earlier fixed for other primaries remain unchanged.

According to the revised timetable released by the party, the Senate primary election will hold on Monday, May 18, while the State House of Assembly primaries are scheduled for Wednesday, May 20.

The governorship primaries will take place on Thursday, May 21, while the presidential primary election is expected to hold on Saturday, May 23, 2026.

The APC said the adjustment was part of efforts to ensure a smooth and well-coordinated exercise ahead of the party’s selection of candidates for the 2027 polls.
