NDC Allows Obi, Kwankwaso to Form Campaign Council
The NDC has conceded the formation of its presidential campaign council to Peter Obi and Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, allowing them to appoint the Director General, Deputy Director General (North), Director of Finance, Deputy Director of Finance, and Media Director. This decision follows a major crisis within the party due to disagreements with the OK Movement regarding the naming of the council.
National Chairman Senator Moses Cleopas announced at a press conference in Abuja that consultations with the party's presidential and vice-presidential candidates have been extensive to ensure proper handling of the process. The council is expected to be unveiled on November 20.
Cleopas emphasized the importance of involving Obi and Kwankwaso in the council's formation, as they will lead the campaign. He also addressed concerns regarding Senator Henry Seriake Dickson's commitment to the Obi-Kwankwaso ticket, clarifying that Dickson has chosen not to pursue the presidential candidacy.
Cleopas expressed confidence in the ticket's appeal across various demographics, particularly among young Nigerians.
