The All Progressives Congress, APC, has been commended for discounting the fee for its nomination forms by fifty percent for youths interested to run for the 2023 General Elections.
The National Youth Leader of the party, Dayo Israel, disclosed this at a news conference at the APC National Secretariat in Abuja.
He said the discount being first in eight years will motivate the youth to compete with others in next year’s elections. Reacting to the statement attributed to the National Chairman, Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Iyorchia Ayu, describing the hundred million naira nomination fee for President as insensitive, APC youth leader urged the opposition party not to interfere with their internal issues.
Recently, the APC at its 11th National Executive Committee meeting in Abuja approved 50% discount on nomination forms for its members under 40 years age.
