PRESS STATEMENT

The attention of the Screening and Selection Committees of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) has been drawn to reports that some aspirants are allegedly being prevented from participating in the ongoing party primaries across the country.

We wish to state categorically that all aspirants who successfully completed the screening process have been duly cleared and are therefore eligible to participate in the primaries. Consequently, any action by any state chapter or party official aimed at preventing a duly cleared aspirant from participating in the exercise is null, void, and of no effect whatsoever.

No aspirant should be denied the opportunity to participate in the primaries in any part of the country.

The Nigeria Democratic Congress remains a progressive and people-oriented political party firmly committed to the principles of accountability, transparency, fairness, and inclusivity. It is therefore unacceptable for any arm of the party’s administrative structure to act contrary to these core values and guiding principles.

Accordingly, party members and officials at all levels are directed to ensure that the primaries are conducted peacefully, transparently, and strictly in accordance with the constitution, guidelines, and regulations of the party.

The primaries for the presidential, governorship, National Assembly, and State Assembly elections will hold nationwide on May 29, 2026.

Aspirants are further advised to note that, aside from the State Assembly primaries, which will hold within the respective constituency areas, all other primaries shall take place at the local government level as earlier communicated by the party.

Osa Director Esq.
National Publicity Secretary

NDC is merely masquerading as an opposition party to deceive gullible people and divide opposition votes. They lack both the structure and strategy needed to win a presidential election. They are just a bunch of noisemakers and pretenders, relying more on social media propaganda and hype than on real political strategy or grassroots support.

Mrexcell:
The nigerian masses are the real structures and they will be the ones to decide what happens on that day.

Obaofaba:
Hope I and the other multiple millions of Nigerians are not in your calculations?

Mrexcell:
Of course not but majority will surely carry the day no matter all the rigging machinery that's on ground.

Obaofaba:
You have us to contend with then.

The battle line has been drawn!

Jossyman0007:
This is what Desmond Idiot was crying, begging and persuading the evil cult of APC to allow him participate,but he was shut out .

This is a good sign that NDC is different from the 1,2,3,9,10,19,100,650,1200,5000,10,900,000 irregular counting of the evil called APC

Akpakomiza2:

Jossyman0007:
