On Monday, the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) will introduce its National Campaign Council for the 2027 general elections and unveil its financial statement during their third National Executive Committee meeting in Abuja. The council will encompass candidates running for the presidency, National Assembly, governorship, and state legislative seats.
Osa Director, the party's National Publicity Secretary, disclosed these details in a statement released on Saturday. He challenged other political parties, particularly the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), to adopt the NDC's level of transparency in financial management. The party's treasurer will present the Statement of Account, reflecting their commitment to openness and accountability.
Director attributed the party's financial situation to the economic hardships faced by Nigerians under the APC-led administration, stating that about 80% of their candidates could not afford the Expression of Interest forms due to poverty, hunger, and deprivation. Consequently, the NDC had to issue these forms free of charge. The unveiling aims to consolidate the party's campaign structures ahead of the elections, following a postponement of the council's inauguration.
The new date is October 26, coinciding with the National Executive Committee meeting where key decisions regarding the 2027 general elections preparations will be made.
