The Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) has announced its participation in the 2027 general elections following a Court of Appeal judgment that overturned a previous ruling from the Federal High Court in Lokoja to deregister the party. NDC National Leader, Henry Seriake Dickson, announced the decision in a statement released from Abuja, commending the Nigerian judiciary for upholding democratic principles and protecting the party's right to participate in the political process.
Dickson emphasized that the Court of Appeal set aside the Lokoja court's ruling, delivered by Justice Isah Dashen, which attempted to undermine the NDC's constitutional right to exist and run in elections. Dickson expressed gratitude to Nigerians for their support and confidence in the party's strength and commitment to democracy.
