PDP National Chairman, Abdulrahman Mohammed, had earlier confirmed that the profile of its presidential candidate has been uploaded to INEC’s portal.
Mohammed made the announcement in a statement on Sunday, saying the party, by taking the step, had demonstrated that it would participate in next year’s election.
INEC had set July 14 as the deadline for the parties to upload the profiles of their candidates to its portal.
The deadline was initially set for July 11 by the electoral body, which later moved it, citing pressure from major stakeholders in the country. The new deadline ended at midnight on Tuesday.
