The Obi-Kwankwaso Movement, known colloquially as the OK Movement, and the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) have engaged in a dispute over the recently announced 59-member presidential campaign council. The NDC rejected the council, with its national chairman, Moses Cleopas, asserting that the body did not represent the party and warning that no group is authorized to establish or publicize a campaign structure without approval from the National Working Committee.
The OK Movement, however, maintained that it is an independent political organization with its own leadership and internal processes. In response, the OK Movement demanded an apology from Cleopas for what it termed as defamatory statements. The OK Movement emphasized that it would continue to educate rather than engage in personal insults, intimidation, or defamatory exchanges.
They also reaffirmed their support for the presidential and vice-presidential candidates of the NDC across the country, without seeking personal validation or approval for their actions.
