The Commission disclosed this in a statement by National Commissioner and chairman, Information and Voter Education Committee, Mohammed Haruna, in Abuja. Haruna said that instead of the April 21 deadline, political parties now have until May 10, but not later than 21 days before the holding of their respective primaries.
