IEC denies giving ANC extension on candidate lists

By GhanaSummary NewsroomSouth Africa

The commission has stated that the system was available to political parties and independent candidates throughout the nomination process, including the cut-off date, ensuring sufficient and uninterrupted use ahead of Friday’s deadline.

The Independent Electoral Commission (IEC) has made it clear that it has not given the African National Congress (ANC) an additional opportunity beyond the deadline of Friday last week to submit its candidate nomination lists.

In 2021, the ANC missed the August deadline to register candidates in 93 municipalities, but the commission later reopened the candidate registration process for political parties ahead of the municipal polls.
