The All Progressives Congress (APC) has confirmed that all aspirants for the House of Representatives in Lagos, Ondo, Ekiti, Enugu, and Rivers states have been cleared to participate in the upcoming shadow elections. These elections are scheduled for May 15, 2026, with primary elections for Senate tickets set for May 18, and House of Assembly elections on May 20.
