The All Progressives Congress APC on Monday in Abuja began the sales of nomination and expression of interest forms to aspirants for the forthcoming National Assembly bye-elections.
The News Agency of Nigeria NAN reports that the election slated for August 16 in 12 states is to fill legislative vacant seats due to the deaths or resignations of lawmakers who left office to contest for executive positions.
Mr. Oscar Aghedo, an aspirant for Edo House of Representatives for Ovia South-West/North-East Federal Constituency, assured of adequate representation, especially in the area of infrastructural development if elected.
He gave the assurance while speaking with newsmen at the APCs national secretariat after picking up his expression of interest and nomination forms to contest for the bye-election.
Today is a great day for me, having purchased these forms to run for the Federal House of Representatives for Ovia South-West/North-East Federal Constituency.
