Tenses:
There is no crisis anywhere near NDC. Not be deceived by Naptu2 and his elaborate lies.

Pls help in Sokoto to share d authentic NDC LOGO

Incase you already printed a banner with the wrong NDC logo, you don’t have to reprint the entire banner. Simply print a sticker of the correct NDC logo & stick over the incorrect one.

Frame 1: Banner with wrong NDC logo.
Frame 2: The same banner with the correct NDC logo. ✌️

For the life of me, I have no idea why the party and the persons saddled with that responsibility have chosen to remain quiet and unpertubbed about the discrepancies in their logo till now.

Even channels tv and some TV stations from time to time display a totally different logo as NDC's logo yet the party is quiet. I can't but conclude that it is very deliberate both on the side of the party and those TV stations.

I'll say this, in order not to waste our efforts and hard work, Dr Tanko, the Obidient Movement and everyone of us should start educating ourselves on the need to start using the right logo now. Let all cells and groups both old and the ones to be created be introduced to the correct logo of the party use it on their banners, posters and stickers.

Our efforts will not be in vain.

Case in point @TheoAbuAgada . The governorship candidate of the NDC in Delta state has been putting in the work. Delta state is one state that is obidient to the core. He/we have a great chance at winning, but he/we can’t win with the wrong logo. Campaigns kick off on the 19th of this month.

2027: Peter Obi’s aide raises concern over NDC logo confusion

By Roseline Nwosu
Published on August 5, 2026

An aide to the presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, Peter Obi, has called on the party leadership to urgently clarify its official logo ahead of the 2027 general elections.

Esther Umoh, who serves as Obi’s campaign photographer, made the appeal in a statement addressed to the NDC Director of New Media and Strategic Communications, Theo Abu Agada, on Wednesday.

Umoh expressed concern over the lingering controversy surrounding the party’s logo, warning that the uncertainty is creating confusion among supporters and candidates as preparations for the elections gather momentum.

According to her, the absence of a clear directive on the logo approved for use has left many party members unsure of the emblem to feature on campaign materials, a development she said could affect the party’s visibility, unity and readiness for the polls.

She urged the party leadership to issue an official communiqué to all state chapters and stakeholders, clearly identifying the logo recognized by the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, and providing uniform guidelines for its usage.

“At this critical stage, the party cannot afford avoidable confusion or mixed messaging. We are working towards victory, and every decision, including clarity around the party’s identity and campaign materials, must reflect that commitment,” she said.

Umoh further expressed concern over the delay in resolving the issue, noting that she hopes it is not a sign of unpreparedness or actions capable of undermining the party’s electoral chances.

“The NDC must act decisively to protect and strengthen its chances at the polls,” she added.

Some of us will say it as it is. It seems like Peter Obi Is Using Esther To Fight A Cold War With The Leadership Of NDC. Especially H.E Sen @iamHSDickson. Because tell me why Esther will be taking a jab at Sen Seriake Dickson about the party he founded. Nawa ooh

This was the same rubbish they did in Labour party, same with ADC and they are doing the same thing in NDC. It's well

Dear Emeka, I feel almost flattered, but I consider myself far too insignificant to be used as a tool in a purported “cold war.”

Peter Obi is widely known to be a peaceful and highly tolerant person, so much so that some people mistake his tolerance for weakness, without realizing that it is, in fact, one of his greatest strengths.

That said, Nigerians are suffering, and we are grateful that the leader of the party, Seriake Dickson, graciously provided a platform through which Peter Obi and the many Nigerians who believe he is the presidential candidate best positioned to move this country forward can work together.

Especially at a time when the President appeared determined to push the country towards a one-party state and undermine the democratic principles on which our nation has endured.

However, when we see certain things that are not ok, we will, in good faith, respectfully draw the attention of the relevant persons to them, just as I did earlier today when I called @TheoAbuAgada’s attention to the issue.

It is unfortunate that people who do not mean us well and thrive on divisive politics would quickly step in to twist words and create unnecessary tension. But that is okay.

We are a family in the NDC. Nobody is fighting a cold war or a hot war, least of all Peter Obi. Family members may disagree from time to time, and there is nothing wrong with that. What matters is that we remain focused on the larger goal.

Our goal is to market Peter Obi and the party effectively, win the elections, and usher in a better Nigeria. One where you, Emeka, your family, and indeed every Nigerian, including myself, can travel freely and safely, enjoy a good quality of life, access quality healthcare and education, and live with dignity.

A Nigeria where the son of nobody can become somebody without knowing anybody.

#NigeriaWillBeOk

Let me make this abundantly clear: anyone who comes for me, I will defend myself and put the person (Him,her,they,) in their place.

I take no prisoners.

Dear @TheoAbuAgada, in your capacity as a communications representative of the party, I respectfully urge you to ensure that @NigeriaNDCHQ addresses the ongoing issue surrounding the party’s logo decisively.

With barely five months to the elections, there is already significant confusion at the grassroots. Candidates and supporters are uncertain about which logo to use on campaign materials, and this lack of clarity could affect the party’s cohesion, visibility and preparedness ahead of the elections.

You have repeatedly stated that the party’s supreme leader is an experienced politician. I therefore believe he fully understands the electoral and political implications of allowing this uncertainty to persist.

The party needs to issue an official communiqué to all state chapters and relevant stakeholders, clearly stating the party’s approved logo on @inecnigeria , and providing uniform guidance on its use.

At this critical stage, the party cannot afford avoidable confusion or mixed messaging. We are working toward victory, and every decision, including clarity around the party’s identity and campaign materials must reflect that commitment.

I sincerely hope the delay is not a sign that the party is unprepared or intentionally trying to sabotage our chances at winning. The NDC must act decisively to protect and strengthen its chances at the polls.

Good morning Esther. Thank you for raising this concern. Last week, I raised this issue with the National Leadership of the party and efforts are being made to address this it. However, as an employee of the presidential candidate of our great party, the NDC, I find it disrespectful and completely unacceptable to refer to our national leader, my boss as a ‘Supreme Leader’ - a nomenclature that denotes an authoritarian regime, which Distinguished Senator Henry Seriake Dickson is not known for. HSD is a Democrat to the core and every individual who has had the opportunity to interact with him can attest to this fact.

Esther, kindly be guided.

Looking forward to hearing from the democratic leader on this issue soonest. Thank you

Lekki - Ikoyi Link Bridge

Lagos Blue Line Railway

2nd Niger Bridge

Lagos - Ibadan Rail line

Dangote Refinery

Do you remember when funny people were saying that all these things were scams and that they would never be completed? They are still saying that about the Lagos - Calabar Coastal Highway.

People make a lot of ridiculous posts and say ridiculous things, but I don't mind, because it is part of the entertainment. I was entertained on this thread when I saw troll accounts gathering, I was entertained when I saw them employing various strategies to get my attention and I began laughing when I saw them get frustrated (because they couldn't get a response from me) and then decide to address me directly.

The question about whether I have converted my car is an irrelevant one. I could say yes and I could say no and there's no way that anybody can verify that what I say is true. I will not answer it because nobody decides for me what I will post. I control them (they are my toys), they don't control me.

They then tried to rile me up by claiming that I am trying to convince people, when, as others have said, I never tried to convince anyone. Why would I even try to convince anyone of anything? That's simply a waste of time.

Once upon a time I posted about the Lekki-Ikoyi Link Bridge. I could see it because it is in my neighbourhood. It was being constructed at the time. Some people claimed that nothing was being built and that it was a scam. I argued with them. Now I wonder what was the point of the argument. The Lekki-Ikoyi Link Bridge is right there and everybody is using it. I can bet that the people that argued on Nairaland that it was a scam are also using it.

Once upon a time, President Goodluck Jonathan restarted the modernisation of the railways. A deal was done with GE, new locomotives, coaches and wagons were bought, the narrow gauge line was rehabilitated and work began on the standard gauge Abuja-Kaduna line and the Abuja metro. I posted about them, but people came to argue that it was a scam and that GEJ was my paymaster. Today everybody can see the Abuja-Kaduna railway service and the Abuja Metro.

Once upon a time work began on the Lagos-Ibadan rail line. This time the arguments were not only online. Offline a friend of mine was arguing that there was no work going on because he used the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway and he couldn't see any rail work going on. Meanwhile, everybody knows that the rail lines (both old and new) do not pass that route. Today everybody can see the Lagos-Ibadan rail line.

There were similar arguments about the Second Niger Bridge (a friend was sharing pictures to prove that there was no bridge and that claims that there was a bridge was a lie), the Blue Line, etc.

What is the point of arguing about such things? What is the point of arguing about such things? What will be will be, whether you argue about it or not. I am not interested in convincing anyone about anything. They are adults and can think for themselves. I simply provide information for those who need it. Use it if you want, don't use it if you don't want, that is none of my business.

The funniest issue is the case of people that think that Nairaland changes anything. There have been very many things that have been popular on Nairaland and yet flopped in the real world. There have also been many things that have been unpopular on Nairaland and yet succeeded in the real world, so why should I be bothered about your unimportant opinion on nairaland? That's your personal problem and I couldn't care about it.

The fact is that over 90% of vehicles that are used in Nigeria are imported and there is energy competition in the vehicle producing countries. Some countries have even enacted laws that will ban internal combustion engine in a few years. So where will we get our vehicles from and what type of vehicles will we use?

So you see, I don't care about convincing you about anything, the only thing that you are good for is entertaining me and I shall use you for my entertainment.

naptu2:
That's another example of a stupid position. I enjoy it when people take this kind of stupid position.

Anybody that's reasoning properly will know that it's a stupid position, but unfortunately many Nigerians reason with their emotions.

The government is building a highway. Now you can criticise the highway all you want, it's your right, but how can you say (authoritatively) that the highway (which people can see being built) will never be built? How will that make you look when it is eventually completed? Won't you look stupid?

naptu2:
This was one of the most enjoyable types of arguments when I still argued on Nairaland.

Back in 2011 and 2012 I faced a lot of people that told me that the Lekki-Ikoyi Link Bridge was a scam, that nothing was being built and that it was just a means to steal money.

The thing was that I could see this bridge near my house, I drove past the worksite often and I could see it from Olateju Crescent. In fact, because of these people I went to observe the Alexander Avenue end of the bridge and I took photos from Olateju Crescent and posted them on Nairaland.

Here's the thing, how st upid must you be to claim that something that everybody can see is being done is not being done? Won't you look like a fo ol and liar when it is completed and everybody is using it??

They said the same thing about the Lagos-Ibadan railway, someone even told me thathe drove down the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway and didn't see any work and that the railway is a scam. I had to remind him that the rail line was near the Lagos-Abeokuta Expressway.

It was the same for the Lagos Blue Line, the same for the Second Niger Bridge (you won't believe the number of people that told me that no work was going on), etc.

Frame 1: Update on the Calabar section of the road

Frame 2: Update on the Akwa-Ibom section of the road

Frame 3: Ogun-Ondo section of the road

The irony of this statement from the highly respected @Donald_Duke is that so much work has been done on the road even in his own backyard yet he still had to play politics with a project that is set to reshape the fortunes of Tinapa, Calabar and Cross River state as a whole when completed.

Funny.
