“The National Think Tank Committee has approved the Action Alliance timetable of activities for the 2025 elective wards, local government areas, state congresses and national convention.

“Commencement of sales of intent forms for all positions at all levels begins November 13 to December 31; screening of all aspirants begins January 3 to January 12, while appeals begin January 13 to January 16.
