Aspirants wishing to contest for the highest office of the land have been given the green light by the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, as the Chairman, Prof Mahmood Yakubu, some minutes ago announced the presidential election will hold on February 18, 2023.

In his goodwill message at the inauguration of the special adhoc committee on the review of the 1999 constitution, the INEC Chairman told members of the House of Representatives they are about 855 days left for the next general elections.

That means the likes of former president Atiku Abubakar, All Progressive Congress (APC) chieftain Asiwaju Tinubu and several others can now start deploying their resources for who takes over from president Muhammadu Buhari in May, 2023.

More details soon…
