Prof. Ochefu Rejects Appointment To NDC National Campaign Council by AnonPoet(op): 4:56am On Oct 27

Professor of Economic History and Strategic Studies at Rev. Fr. Moses Orshio Adasu University, Makurdi, Prof. Yakubu Ochefu, has rejected his purported appointment to the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) National Campaign Council, insisting that he is not a member of the party.

Ochefu said he was neither consulted before his name was included in the list of members of the campaign council circulating on social media nor did he give his consent to the appointment.

The university don, who is also the National Chairman of the Association of Nigerian Universities Alumni (ANUA) and President-General of Ochetoha K’Idoma, said his leadership positions required him to remain non-partisan, as the memberships of both organisations cut across political parties.

In a statement he personally signed, Prof. Ochefu said, “My attention has been drawn to a list circulating on social media, titled ‘Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) National Campaign Council’, which names me as a member of its National Campaign Caucus.

“I wish to inform the public that I am not a member of the NDC and have never been.

“I was not consulted before my name was included, nor did I give consent.

“I have written to the Chairman of the Council to decline the appointment and to request that my name be withdrawn and a revised list published.

“As National Chairman of the Association of Nigerian Universities Alumni, ANUA, and President-General of Ochetoha K’Idoma, I lead organisations whose members cut across all political parties. These offices require me to remain non-partisan, and I intend to honour that obligation.

“I thank all who reached out for clarification, and ask that you disregard the list insofar as it concerns me.”

They are threatening people out of NDC. Why are they are afraid if they have performed well. Task Master aka Mr Borrow Borrow Crew. Nigerians should reject Tinubu, a monumental failure.

When some supporters of Mr Peter Obi tell you the opposition and oppression they face from the present government, you understand their desperation. Nigerians, the ball is in your court.

There is no difference among the political parties in Nigeria. They all operate at a similar level of "anyhowness." Why on earth would the NDC include the Professor's name in their political party activities without first seeking his approval? Now that he has publicly rejected his inclusion, I hope the party is served the disgrace they deserve.

The man just gave his reasons and instead of you to try to show integrity that you don't have and can never have like the Peter Obi people like you support you are yarning dust....why are people without courage or conviction being appointed by NDC if indeed APC is threatening them out of NDC.....una go cry sotey una go tire.

People without honour and integrity who cannot say the truth or face the truth but always making excuses for their failure and rejection.....we dey wait for una at the polling unit.....Tinubu till 2031 by the grace of God

You didn't hear when Mr Peter Obi said that people are avoiding him because of intimidation. The NDC mobilizer in Ughelli whom the Local Government Area Chairman nearly demolished his shop is also another case
