“Furthermore, the attention of parties is drawn to section 32(3) of the Electoral Act 2022, which provides that failure to notify the commission “shall not be ground to invalidate the election,” Okoye said.

According to the list, 16 political parties presented candidates for the governorship election.

Out of the 16 candidates, 14 are male while two are female.

Also, there are seven female and nine male candidates for the deputy governorship position.
