The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has declared its readiness for the local council polls fixed for September 21, 2024, in the state by the Independent State Electoral Commission, KWASIEC.
The main opposition party in the state, stated this in a statement by its spokesman, Olusegun Olushola Adewara, in Ilorin on Saturday, at the end of a general meeting held with the political parties in the councils' polls with the state electoral commission, in Ilorin, the state capital. PDP was ably represented by the state chairman, Babatunde Mohammed, and the state party secretary, Abdulrahman Abdullahi Kayode.
Consequently, the PDP proposed that the nomination forms for councilorship should not exceed N50,000, while that of chairmanship must not exceed N200,000. Efforts to reach the spokesman of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Aro Folaranmi, on Saturday, proved abortive as several calls put across to his phone were not responded to, but DAILY POST gathered that the ruling APC fixed nomination forms for chairmanship and councilorship positions at N100,000 and N25,000 respectively.
