The Lagos State Chairman of the party, Mr Dele Oladeji, revealed this in a statement issued in Lagos on Friday following the party’s National Executive Council (NEC) meeting held in Abuja on Wednesday.
“The NEC meeting serves as the concluding meeting for the fixing of nomination fees, primary date, and the primary mode ahead of the 2027 general elections,” Oladeji said.
According to him, the approved nomination and expression of interest fees for governorship aspirants under the Accord platform are N10m and N5m, respectively.
For the Senate aspirants, Oladeji said the nomination fee was N5m while the expression of interest fees remained N2.5m.
For the House of Representatives, he said that the nomination and expression of interest fees are N3.5m and N1.5m, respectively.
Oladeji explained that aspirants for the state House of Assembly seats will pay N1m and N500,000 for nomination and expression of interest fees, respectively.
“We are also warning of the closure of the electoral window on April 25. Membership registration ends on April 26, the same as the purchase of nomination forms,” he said.
Oladeji called on Lagos residents seeking change in governance to align with the party.
“Accord is the party to vote for. If you desire a change in governance, then you need to change the party that will govern Lagos State from 2027.
“Accord is making a clarion call for patriotic change agents to join the party, contest and win, to be involved in the governance of Lagos State,” Oladeji said.
The chairman also pledged reforms in key state agencies and policies.
“Accord is leading the charge for a cleanup of bad political leadership and governance.
“We will elect patriotic leaders who will reform the state to bring a human face to governance and policies,” he said.
Oladeji added that the party’s primary elections would commence on May 21.
