“Our governorship and house of representatives primary election will now take place on Thursday,  May 26, while the senate and house of assembly primaries will take place on Friday May 27.

“The election appeals for governorship and house of representatives will take place on Friday May 27,” he said, adding that appeals for senate and house of assembly primaries will hold on Saturday May 28.

Morka said following the party’s approved revised timetable schedule of activities, its special convention and presidential primaries earlier slated for May 30 and June 1, would now take place between May 29 and 30.

He added that the mode of primary election would be contained in the guidelines that would be issued later.
