Osakwe stated that the exercise was in line with Section 28(1) of the Electoral Act, 2022, and Section 23 of the Anambra State Electoral Law, 2024, which empowers the commission to issue election notices.

“We call on all political parties to start obtaining their nomination forms from the body along the Enugu-Awka expressway,” she said.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the commission conducted the last local government council election in September 2024.
