Resignation hits Ebonyi NDC as EXCO members dump party over primaries

June 22, 2026

The Ebonyi State chapter of the Nigerian Democratic Congress (NDC) is experiencing a wave of resignations following the conduct of the party’s recent primaries.

As of Monday, more than 11 members of the State Executive Council (EXCO), including the Deputy State Chairman and the State Secretary, have resigned from the party.

In their resignation letters, the affected officials cited dissatisfaction with the process and outcome of the primaries held on May 29, 2026.

The Deputy State Chairman, Comrade Okey Idenyi, stated in his resignation letter:

“Despite my attempt to offer counsel, the party is sadly no longer able to carry out its own rules or offer credible opposition… It is in the light of the foregoing that I am compelled to offer my resignation from the Nigeria Democratic Congress, effective immediately.”

Similarly, the State Secretary, Barrister Aduma Solomon Chinedu, mentioned unresolved issues in the state chapter as a key reason for his decision.

The resignations come after supporters of one of the aspirants, Architect Christian Asaga Nwali (popularly known as C-Sagas), staged a peaceful protest in Abuja, calling for the party to declare the authentic result of the Ebonyi Central Senatorial District primary.

As of the time of filing this report, the national leadership of the NDC is yet to issue an official response to the developments in Ebonyi State.

The situation has raised concerns about unity within the party ahead of the 2027 general elections.

I read where you said Frank MBA was called to the Bar in 2002. I thought lawyers aren't allowed to do anything else, other than farming?

PRESS STATEMENT
23rd June, 2026

URGENT APPEAL TO H.E. PETER OBI: ADDRESSING THE TRAVESTY IN ALIMOSHO

Your Excellency @PeterObi, I write to you directly as the undisputed moral conscience of our polity and singular agency and force behind the new Nigeria that is ever more POssible.

Despite our previous communication, the subversion of the Alimosho House of Representatives primary remains unaddressed. The mandate clearly won by @ifesalakooffice is being systematically dismantled through backroom deals.

We must specifically highlight the actions of one John Ughulu, who, by all accounts, has allegedly weaponized the OK Movement to settle personal scores and undermine the broader Obidient movement. He has gone on record stating that he does not even mind sacrificing our success at the polls in Lagos to achieve his selfish ends.

By controlling internal systems to orchestrate this sabotage, John is actively working to disenfranchise the will of the people and replace a legitimate candidate with his own personal choice.

Worse still, he has systematically removed everyone associated with the Obidient movement, and whenever he is challenged or questioned, he invokes your name, using it as a shield or a claim of authorization for his dangerous personal ambitions and reckless whims.

This is a direct assault on the integrity of the movement, our party @NigeriaNDCHQ and it is totally anathema to everything you represent. If the NDC allows these anti-democratic maneuvers to stand, it validates the exact culture of corruption and patronage politics that we are convinced you are committed to dismantling.

Time is of the essence, Your Excellency. We therefore urge you to intervene immediately to restore the mandate of the people of Alimosho by reinstating Ife’s victory and mandate. The credibility of our movement, our party, and the promise of a new Nigeria depend on your decisive action.

Tudo Bams
For the Obidient Ninjas.

Ebonyi NDC crisis deepens as deputy chairman, others resign

By : Nnamdi Akpa
Date: 22 June 2026

The crisis in the Ebonyi State chapter of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC)
worsened on Monday following the resignation of key party officials, including Deputy Chairman Comrade Okey Idenyi, Secretary Barr. Chinedu Adum, Welfare Officer, Mr Cyril Ajah, Youth Leader, Anthony Nwofe, and others.

They cited corruption, financial fraud, lack of equity and justice, and controversies surrounding the party’s recently concluded primaries as reasons for their departure.

Addressing journalists in Abakaliki, the former officials said the mass resignation signals the collapse of the party’s structure in the state, insisting that the NDC would not win a single House of Assembly seat in the forthcoming general elections.

The former Deputy Chairman, Comrade Okey Idenyi, lamented that the structure they helped build in Ebonyi State before the emergence of Peter Obi in the political space had been hijacked by what he described as corrupt elements who entered the party through the “back door.”

He expressed disappointment over what he described as irregularities during the party’s primaries, accusing the leadership of abandoning an earlier agreement on consensus candidates and instead allowing full contests that, according to him, ended in confusion and disorganisation.

He further alleged that shortly after the party’s congresses and national convention, politicians from other parties infiltrated the structure and took over leadership positions, adding that founding members were sidelined.

Idenyi also alleged financial misconduct, claiming that aspirants were asked to pay various sums for nomination: ₦100,000 for House of Assembly, ₦300,000 for House of Representatives, ₦500,000 for Senate, and ₦750,000 for governorship aspirants.

He alleged that the funds were mismanaged and that the process was later abandoned in favour of contested primaries.

In his remarks, Barr. Chinedu Adum said he could no longer remain in a party that, according to him, denied founding members the opportunity to contest elective positions as provided by law.

He accused the National Working Committee (NWC) of failing to intervene despite repeated complaints about alleged hijacking of the party structure in the state.

Adum further alleged that aspirants were made to purchase nomination forms for over ₦3 million and were later asked to pay additional sums running into millions before screening, describing the process as exploitative.

He also alleged that many aspirants who made payments were later disqualified for lacking political backing, describing the process as fraudulent and unfair.

He further accused former Governor Dr. Sam Egwu of exerting undue influence over the party, claiming that its operations were being run as a personal structure.

Also speaking, Youth Leader Anthony Nwofe described the party primaries as chaotic and undemocratic, alleging that petitions filed by the state chapter were ignored by the national leadership.

He said the conduct of the primaries fell below expectations and did not reflect the ideals of internal democracy the party claimed to represent.

“I am no longer interested in the party. I have resigned, and I am making it public,” he said.

Similarly, Welfare Officer Mr. Cyril Ajah announced his resignation and said he had withdrawn his support for the party and its presidential candidate.

He stated that developments within the party no longer aligned with his principles, adding that he could no longer participate in its activities.
