The All Progressives Congress (APC) has postponed its governorship primary election across the 36 states of the federation, including the FCT, Abuja.

The exercise was earlier slated to hold on Saturday.

APC spokesman, Yekini Nabena, announced the new date Thursday night on Twitter.

He wrote, “National Working Committee (NWC) has rescheduled the Governorship Primary Election to 30th September, 2018.

“Subsequent elections are unchanged and are as follows: 2nd October, 2018 – Senate Primary Elections:

“3rd October, 2018 – House of Representatives Primary Elections;

“4th October, 2018 – State House of Assembly Primary Elections;

“6th October, 2018 – National Convention (Presidential)”.

Meanwhile, the APC has released a list of governorship aspirants that have been cleared to contest for primaries in 26 states.

President Muhammadu Buhari’s ministers, Aisha Alhassan aka Mama Taraba and Adebayo Shittu were not cleared.

However, names of those cleared in other states are expected to be announced in the offing.
