The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Lagos State has officially announced the nomination fees for aspirants contesting in the upcoming local government elections across the 57 LGAs and LCDAs.
According to the party, aspirants for chairmanship positions will pay a nomination fee of N5 million, while councillorship hopefuls will pay N1 million. An additional administrative fee of N500,000 applies to all categories.
In a strategic move to foster inclusiveness and boost grassroots participation, the APC has introduced a 50% discount on nomination fees for youths and women. This means eligible female and youth aspirants will pay N2.5 million for chairmanship and N500,000 for councillorship, exclusive of the administrative charge.
All aspirants must present stamped payment receipts before collecting nomination forms.
With the race now officially open, political momentum is set to build across Lagos, as both seasoned politicians and fresh contenders gear up for a competitive electoral season at the grassroots level.
