All candidates were given the chance to correct their errors – EC

The Electoral Commission (EC) has announced that candidates who made errors on their nomination forms were given extra time to correct them.

She emphasized the commission's fairness and transparency, noting that the five-day correction period helped reduce confusion compared to past elections.
