Peter Obi Rejects Vice-Presidential Nomination from Atiku
On October 8, 2026, Theo Abu Agada, the Director of New Media and Strategic Communications for the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), announced that the party's presidential candidate, Peter Obi, declined the vice-presidential nomination from Atiku Abubakar, his counterpart from the African Democratic Congress (ADC). Agada's statement was made in response to allegations from an X user, @Henryshield, who claimed Agada was leaking critical campaign information to the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Agada vehemently denied these accusations, labeling them as lies and asserting that he has no affiliations with the APC. He challenged @Henryshield to provide proof of any such information transfer, promising to resign if evidence was presented.
Agada emphasized his commitment to promoting Obi's candidacy and criticized @Henryshield for attempting to sow discord within the NDC.
