Women’s Group Launches Campaign for Obi-Kwankwaso Ticket

The Obi-Kwankwaso National Women’s Support Group has initiated a nationwide mobilisation campaign ahead of the 2027 general elections, officially starting on October 1, 2026, following the inauguration of its national leadership. The group aims to strengthen grassroots engagement and support for the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) presidential ticket, which features Peter Obi as the presidential candidate and Rabiu Kwankwaso as his running mate.

The group will focus on engaging women leaders, professionals, entrepreneurs, young women, and community organisers through a network of grassroots structures across all 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory. Hon. Anwuli Ogbechi, the Convener and National Coordinator, stated that the group would also undertake leadership mentoring, political education, and community initiatives, including medical and educational outreach programs.

The national leadership includes Mairo Musa Abubakar, Pastor Basiratu Musa Ibijoke, Lolo Victoria Mgbor Odogwu, and others. This initiative is part of broader efforts to establish campaign structures for the upcoming elections.
