April 22, (THEWILL) – The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has further extended the sales of its nomination and Expression of Interest forms for the 2023 general elections.
The last day for the submission of already completed forms is now Monday, April 25, 2022, while the deadline for purchase of forms is Friday, April 22, 2022.
