Labour Party Reschedules Primaries to May 30, 2026
The Labour Party announced a shift in its primary election dates, moving the governorship primary from May 27, 2026, to May 30, 2026. This adjustment was made to avoid a clash with two important national events: the Eid el-Kabir celebration on May 27 and the third anniversary of the inauguration of elected public office holders across Nigeria on May 29.
The party's statement, issued by Ken Eluma Asogwa from the national public secretariat, emphasized the need to consider the spiritual significance of the Sallah celebration and to enable members and aspirants to fully participate in these national events. The Labour Party expressed regret for any inconvenience caused by this rescheduling and appealed for understanding and cooperation from all stakeholders involved.
