Obi’s overseas trip forces NDC to shift campaign council inauguration

The Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) has postponed the inauguration of its National Campaign Council for the 2027 general elections due to President Peter Obi's overseas engagement. The event, initially scheduled for October 20, has been rescheduled to October 26. The postponement was announced by the party's National Publicity Secretary, Osa Director, who cited Obi's tight schedule and important overseas commitments as the reason for the change.

The NDC expressed regret for any inconvenience caused by the date change and urged its members and supporters to remain focused on securing victory for Obi and other NDC candidates in the upcoming elections.
