The All Progressive Congress has pegged expression of interest and nomination forms for senatorial aspirants on its platform at N7 million each ahead of the forthcoming legislative by-elections.

While aspirants for House of Assembly are to purchase same forms for N850, 000 each while female and physically challenged aspirants are to pay 50 per cent of the prescribed fees for each position.

These details were contained in APC’s time-table and schedule of activities for conduct of the 2020 concurrent legislative by-elections across 8 States at the weekend by the Director of Organisation, Professor Medaner Ussiju Al-Mustapha in Abuja.

Last week, Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) fixed the by-elections for Saturday October 31, 2020.
