NDC to Launch Campaign Council and Financial Statement

The Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) is set to unveil its National Campaign Council for the 2027 general elections on October 26 during its third National Executive Committee meeting in Abuja. The meeting, scheduled for 10am at JD Event Centre, will also feature the presentation of the party's statement of account by the National Treasurer, emphasizing the NDC's commitment to transparency and accountability.

Osa Director, the National Publicity Secretary, stated that about 80 percent of the party's candidates could not afford the Expression of Interest forms due to economic hardships, which he attributed to the administration of the All Progressives Congress (APC). The NDC had to provide these forms free of charge to many candidates.

The campaign council will encompass candidates for various elections, including presidential and National Assembly seats. The unveiling follows a postponement from October 20 due to scheduling conflicts with presidential candidate Peter Obi.

NDC National Chairman Moses Cleopas reaffirmed the party's unity and commitment to the Obi-Kwankwaso presidential ticket.
