The Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, has said that more than 50% of its candidates for the 2027 general elections emerged through consensus.

Featuring in an interview on Arise Television on Thursday, the national spokesman of the party, Osa Director, said a lot of people are working hard to sabotage the party’s efforts by alleging that the NDC is no different from other political parties.

Director reaffirmed the party’s commitment to ensuring a transparent and all-inclusive democratic process.

“Over 50% of NDC candidates emerged through consensus. The NDC is a party which is going to conduct itself in such a way that it is no longer business as usual. That is a promise we made to Nigerians.

“However, you find out that the NDC is a bride that is attracting so many suitors, and at the end of the day, only one suitor is going to be allowed to pay the bride price.

Then, those who are unable to do that would naturally feel a bit dissatisfied or feel a sense of rejection, but in the NDC, no one is rejected.

“Like my national chairman said, the NDC is a political Noah’s Ark that is going to serve as a vehicle to turn Nigeria to a destination of salvation, a destination where we shall embrace progress and development, and inclusive progress and development,” he said.

Same old wine in different skin

May the dark part of Nigeria never happened to us.
I remember I was a stunt GEJ supporter but today I have withdrawn all my love for Nigeria politician

Today the GEJ I was dying for and dat got me running for my life till today from North is even associating with the APC more since the days of Buhari 😆😆😆

I do not blame ppl crying and dying for Obi all I have to say is that God will console you.

Obi may end up joining APC 2031 and may start working for Tinubu after this election.

May God help us all and deliver us from our politicians, dose guys are master manipulators and evil.

And Obi couldn't help just one of his lieutenants in the consensus except himself. That's the person that wants to lift Nigeria. Person wey throw even his wife under the bus go save you.

Aisha yesufu is till lamenting as we type ..

When is Nigeria going to be better?

Consensus is in line with the tinubu's new electrol Act.

tinubu thought he was setting a trap on opposition, little did he know he was helping opposition.

Setting a trap how? The electoral reform was for the country. Reforms are improving what we had before. You complain everything is bad, someone comes to try and reform things with electoral reform, electricity reform, tax reform, police reform, fx reform, education reform etc. And all you can think is how they're setting trap? Our education systems really collapsed. There's a huge lack of critical thinking.

That's in a democratic settings. A new saint party for that matter doing things in more horrible way than those they have been accusing

Are the 50% who lose out aware of the consensus decision before joining the race.

Imagine the way they are boldly lying to themselves.What was Aisha Yesufu's ranting for?

Self deceit is real, every political party sees itself as the best.

Most funny of all isn't about the voting but about this people rigging themselves in, Nigeria is at war and war is easier , just comb our forest and move most barracks there

BUNCH OF CRIMINALS CALLING THEMSELVES DEMOCRATS.

Says a party who announced election results days before voting was cast.

A new nonsense they call new Nigeria is possible.

Which stewwwpid reforms are you blabbing about.

The true electoral reform should have election results transmit electronically and vote buying in primaries declared a criminal offense not this current tinubu's electoral act.

The NDC carefully poached opposition strong candidates to boost it's national spread 📌💯.

All Labour Party decampees lost their tickets in APC. Omo Agege is identifying NDC, it was a blunder for all Delta heavy weight in APC 🤷🏿.

Yet they are the same party attacking other party with few concensus as evil party.

NDC too dey play.

Clowns always forming in the mouth

EponObi:
Consensus for Dickson's favourites. 😂

Primaries for the rest.

In other words, 50% of NDC candidates were hand-picked right inside Dickson's sitting room.

Dickson to Aisha Yesusfu say, "You no meet the cutoff mark. Better luck next time."

Obi to Aisha, "Babe, stop spitting saliva on me. You have to sacrifice. You are a 5kb picture. Look at me; I'm the 30GB picture." 🤣

Why are you unnecessarily emotional. So it's electoral reform or Tinubu that made NDC and ADC conducted the worst primary in the history of Nigeria.

What change can these parties bring with this? They'll be worse than the APC they want to unseat

A very good one. As it should be under “ democratic settings “

Yes over 50% were consensually selected without primaries.

Obi was in LP he still did it .
Is Obi the umpire?
People queue to make their choices,

Obi didn't give anybody rice or money to vote him he is not just like that grandpa in Abuja that bought his votes with rice.
