This was announced in a statement on Saturday by the Organizing Secretary/Spokesperson of the APC Unity Caretaker Committee, Hon James Ornguga.

Hon Ornguga stated that the party has nominated members of the screening committee for the three senatorial districts in the state.

He advised all APC aspirants to submit their duly filled nomination/expression of interest forms and credentials at the party secretariat, No. 75 JS Tarka Way, Makurdi, by midnight on August 31, 2024.

“In line with the APC Constitution and the party’s electoral guidelines, the Caretaker Legal Adviser, Barr Terhemen Ngbea, will head and oversee the entire screening process, ensuring proper vetting of aspirants’ documents and legal compliance.

“The Caretaker Committee Chairman, Benjamin Omale and the Secretary, Prof Bem Angwe, on behalf of the Committee, urge all aspirants to adhere strictly to the rules, as only registered aspirants will be allowed into the screening venue.

“Those who come with uninvited crowds that may distort the program will risk early disqualification, and there shall be no extension of the screening date,” he said.
