Asogwa explained that the technical challenges experienced by some political parties during the submission of presidential and National Assembly candidates in the past were mainly linked to differences between party records and information on the INEC portal.
He noted that the issue was not unique to the Labour Party, as several political parties encountered similar difficulties while trying to align candidates’ names and other details with the commission’s database.
INEC had earlier released the timetable for political parties to submit their candidates’ particulars ahead of the 2027 elections.
The Labour Party said it remains committed to meeting all the commission’s requirements and completing the upload of its governorship and State House of Assembly candidates across the country within the approved timeline.
