Speaking on a special edition of the Morning Show on Diaspora Digital Media (DDM), NDC House of Representatives aspirant, Nnamdi Dickson Iroegbu, delivered a blistering assessment of the party's internal crisis. He argued that the turmoil currently rocking the NDC is self-inflicted, citing the absence of primaries in Imo State, weak party structures, and what he described as the leadership's costly decision to adopt direct primaries instead of a consensus approach. Iroegbu insisted that responsibility for the crisis lies squarely with the party leadership, not Peter Obi, sparking fresh debate over the root causes of the growing tensions within the NDC.

The Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, has announced a deadline for political parties to submit the names of their candidates for the 2027 general elections, a move that has intensified disputes arising from recent party primaries.
Several political parties are currently battling allegations of irregularities, parallel primaries, court cases, and disagreements over candidate selection.
Political observers say the deadline places additional pressure on party leaderships to resolve internal disputes before submitting their final lists.
INEC has warned that it will strictly adhere to electoral guidelines and timelines, emphasizing that only candidates emerging through valid and lawful processes will be recognized.
The development is expected to trigger a fresh wave of litigation among aggrieved aspirants seeking judicial intervention.

KWANKWASO'S TWEET PUNCTURES RUMOURS OF NDC CRISIS

Fresh indications suggest that reports of a rift between Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso and the leadership of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) may have been exaggerated.

On Monday night, Kwankwaso appeared to push back against the rumours when he shared photos from a strategic meeting with NDC candidates from Kogi State in Abuja.

According to him, *"This evening, I hosted a highly productive meeting with the NDC candidates from Kogi State at my residence in Abuja. We had robust deliberations on the way forward and concrete strategies for our collective victory."*

The post came hours after social media was flooded with reports claiming Kwankwaso was unhappy over the sharing of party positions and candidate slots within the NDC.

Reacting, political analyst and social media influencer Harmless described Kwankwaso as a political "Maradona" for allowing the rumours to spread before responding.

In a post, Harmless wrote:

*"Kwankwaso is a proper Maradona in politics ooo... The man just played a fast one on Atiku's supporters and APC data boys... And today, he just rubbished the entire rumour with pictures from his strategic meeting with NDC structure in Kogi."*

Harmless also dismissed several claims making the rounds online, writing:

*"Kwankwaso and Dickson are fighting over sharing formula." Result = FALSE.*

*"Kwankwaso is threatening to leave the NDC." Result = FALSE.*

*"Kwankwaso is about to join the PRP." Result = FALSE.*

The controversy began after reports alleged that the NDC in Kano had replaced some candidates submitted by the Kwankwasiyya movement over an alleged disagreement on a 60/40 power-sharing arrangement.

The reports also claimed the development had triggered tension between Kwankwaso and NDC National Leader Senator Seriake Dickson. However, Kwankwaso's latest public engagement with NDC candidates has fueled counterclaims that the reported feud may have been nothing more than political propaganda.

The development comes amid growing expectations surrounding the Obi-Kwankwaso, or "OK," political movement, which seeks to unite Peter Obi's support base with Kwankwaso's influential grassroots structure ahead of the 2027 elections.
