The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that INEC has scheduled the Presidential and National Assembly elections for February 25 and the gubernatorial and state assembly elections for March 11.
The INEC Resident Electoral Commissioner (REC) in Enugu State, Dr. Chukwuemeka Chukwu, told the Nigerian News Agency (NAN) in Enugu on Friday that screening was simultaneously occurring in all three senatorial zones.
According to Chukwu, the exercise will last four days, beginning on January 19 and ending on January 22.
