NDC Logo Confusion Raises Concerns Ahead of 2026 Elections

Esther Umoh, an aide to Peter Obi, has raised concerns regarding the lack of clarity surrounding the official logo of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) as the 2026 general elections approach. In a statement addressed to the party's communications director, Theo Abu Agada, Umoh warned that the ongoing uncertainty is causing confusion among supporters and candidates.

With less than five months until the elections, she emphasized the importance of having a clear direction on the party's approved logo to ensure candidates and supporters know which emblem to use on campaign materials. Umoh called for the NDC leadership to issue an official communiqué to all state chapters and stakeholders, clearly identifying the logo approved by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and providing uniform guidelines for its use.

She expressed concern that the delay in resolving the logo issue could indicate a lack of preparedness within the party, which could undermine its electoral prospects.
