2027: G100 consensus move good, but NDC focused on winning – Dickson

Seriake Dickson, the National Leader of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), commended the G100's efforts to form a consensus presidential candidate ahead of the 2027 general elections, stating that the initiative was commendable. However, Dickson emphasized that the NDC remained focused on winning the election, as they have already selected their presidential ticket and are now dedicated to presenting it to Nigerians to secure victory.

He affirmed the NDC's endorsement of the G100's endeavours, but firmly stated that their priorities lay in delivering a compelling and balanced ticket that resonates with the Nigerian populace at home and abroad. The NDC leader reiterated their commitment to collaborate with other parties and political groups, provided they believe it will bolster their chances of winning the election.

The G100 Alliance Summit, convened in Abuja by opposition leaders from six parties, aimed to foster unity among political stakeholders in preparation for the upcoming elections. Dickson acknowledged the summit's significance, noting that their ultimate aim was to win the election and serve the Nigerian people.
