The Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) has delayed the launch of its National Campaign Council (NCC) from October 20, 2026, to October 26, 2026. This change was announced in a press release on Monday by the party’s National Publicity Secretary, Osa Director. The NCC is set to formally commence the NDC’s electoral campaign ahead of the 2027 general elections.
The postponement comes due to a crucial overseas commitment of the party’s presidential candidate, Peter Obi. In a message to party members and supporters nationwide, the NDC spokesperson regretted the abrupt change but insisted on maintaining focus on the party’s electoral goals. "Our Presidential Candidate, His Excellency, Mr. Peter Obi, has a very important overseas engagement," the statement noted, "and we apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
We urge everyone to remain focused on ensuring victory for our presidential candidate and all NDC candidates in the upcoming elections."
