He said that ward congress to elect new executives would take place on Jan. 25, pointing out that appeals on conduct of the ward congress would be taken on Jan. 30.
Orbih disclosed that the timetable had slated municipal congresses to elect new executives for Feb. 8, while appeals on the congresses would be heard on Feb. 13.
“The timetable has scheduled state congresses to elect new state excos for Feb. 22, while appeals for the state congresses have been slated for Feb. 25.”
