PRESS STATEMENT
OFFICE OF THE NATIONAL PUBLICITY SECRETARY,
NIGERIA DEMOCRATIC CONGRESS (NDC)
Second NEC Resolutions: NDC Takes Major Steps Towards Institutionalization
1. The NDC is committed to building the party as a strong and enduring institution, with emphasis on party supremacy. The programs, policies, and appointments (except personal staff) of all governments elected on the platform of the party must be made in consultation with the party structure.
The party remains supreme, and members are expected to align their personal interests and agendas with those of the party.
2. All affiliated groups and NGOs shall operate under the guidance and control of the party and must not function in parallel with, or independently of, the party structure.
3. A comprehensive Code of Conduct shall be established for all party officials and candidates. To this end, a committee has been constituted under the leadership of the National Legal Adviser to develop the framework and guidelines.
4. A National Reconciliation Committee has been inaugurated to reconcile all aggrieved members of the party.
5. The NDC is being built as an institution, not a personality cult, political movement, or Special Purpose Vehicle (SPV) to be used and discarded.
Members are encouraged to remain committed to the party and contribute to its growth and sustainability for generations to come.
At all times, and for all candidates and aspirants, total allegiance must be to the party and the national interest.
On financial probity, the party will enforce strict accountability in the management of party resources by all officers, and party funds must be used strictly for party business.
For candidates, there must also be strict accountability for all funding received. Monies sourced by candidates at all levels, and contributions made by candidates to campaign accounts, must be fully disclosed to the party at the appropriate levels (local government, state, zonal, and national). Such funds must be received through dedicated party campaign accounts, including presidential and governorship campaign accounts of the party, as applicable.

Debunked: The claims in the X post are false. https://t.co/aUZHTpWNE4
• ID Card: Peter Obi did not mandate ID cards for Northerners/Hausa residents. Fact-checks confirm this claim is misinformation, often misattributed from Imo State (Okorocha era, 2014). The card shown was a standard student/residency or community-issued document, not evidence of discrimination. https://t.co/tfKxL5DZcd
• Harassment/Arrests: No evidence of systematic targeting or “deportation” of Northerners. Arrests focused on street beggars (often repatriated to Southern states like Ebonyi/Akwa Ibom), not ethnic Northerners. Northern groups in Anambra absolved Obi of discrimination. https://t.co/Uh22oHDyI6
Obi’s administration protected Northern communities during tensions and maintained good relations with them. These are recurring political smears without credible evidence from his tenure. https://t.co/2ayX6xuiIG
@PeterObi@NOIweala My deepest condolences to @NOIweala and the entire Okonjo family on the passing of Prince Ikechukwu. May his soul rest in perfect peace, and may God grant you all the strength and comfort to bear this painful loss. 🙏
My dearest sister Ngozi @NOIweala ,
It is with profound sorrow that I received the sad news of the demise of Prince Ikechukwu Okonjo, your younger brother.
The loss of a younger sibling is an arduous and grievous experience. Please accept my sincerest sympathies, extended to you, the esteemed royal family of the Ogwashi-Uku Kingdom, and all individuals who held Prince Ikechukwu in their affections.
May God Almighty who called him home grant him eternal rest in His kingdom, and grant your family the fortitude to bear his irreplaceable loss.
God Almighty bless your family always. -PO
@SadiqMaunde@NDCcampaign101 God bless the real ones standing against tribal and religious division!
No room for Atiku’s divide-and-rule tactics in 2027.
Peter Obi represents competence and unity let’s keep pushing for a better Nigeria beyond ethnicity and religion.
#NewNigeria#ObiDatti2027
@Big_marvis 😂 I can see you clearly need a psychiatric evaluation, bro. Obsessing over Peter Obi like this while ignoring your own side’s mountains of corruption. Touch grass and get some help.
Hey Dude, respect but this one no follow.
We’re not complaining we’re suffering the reality.
Tinubu took bad economy and made it worse:
Naira crashed to ₦1,360+, inflation still biting, fuel ₦1,250/litre, food prices doubled.
Calling this “fundamentals”? Na elites chopping while youths dey pain.
Obi offered better vision. We chose hope over this long-term suffering.
#Obidient #WeNoGoGree
@NigeriaStories Every Dick and Harry will just drag Peter Obi’s name on X for cheap impressions and few crumbs. Shame on you fake news peddlers. Your propaganda is getting too obvious. Obi is not your ATM for clout.
You must be patriotic to your county DID NOT APPLY HERE!
Hold your Governors accountable DID NOT APPLY HERE!
Stop cursing your country DID NOT APPLY HERE!
Be civil, stop abusing people who do not support your candidate DID NOT APPLY HERE!
These are the people Gaslighting you.
The so called “Grand Illusion” is just copium and celebration of the 2023 electoral fraud.
In 2023, we all saw the scam the INEC real-time upload that mysteriously failed when results started favoring the “wrong” side, the cancelled uploads, the server issues, and the blatant manipulation that robbed millions of their mandate. That was daylight robbery, not some brilliant “masterstroke of political engineering.”
2023 is not 2027. The people are wiser now. The rigging playbook has been exposed, and that same fraud will not repeat itself. Nigerians are more awake, more documented, and more determined. Peter Obi and the movement aren’t trapped the old guard is the one panicking because their usual games won’t work next time.
This article is pure gibberish: romanticizing theft as strategy while ignoring the massive irregularities, disenfranchisement, and judicial outcomes that left a bitter taste. The establishment can keep writing fan fiction about “winning the rural machine.” The streets and the youth already know the truth.
See you in 2027. No more illusions. No more stolen mandates.
Baba, be pragmatic here.
I don’t need to personally interview dozens of forest guards to form a reasoned view data, reports, ground-level patterns, and multiple credible accounts already paint a clear picture.
Meeting a handful or even none doesn’t invalidate systemic issues that keep repeating.
Criticism isn’t about how many people I’ve sat down with; it’s about whether the criticism is accurate and evidence based.
Let’s focus on the actual problems (corruption, poor enforcement, lack of resources, etc.) instead of gatekeeping who’s “allowed” to speak on it. Practical solutions matter more than personal anecdotes.
Am off to sleep please enough of this, when we live abroad and know how the systems work, but we will accept mere minimum and waste of resources…
Tinubu you will not sleep well
Those who are supporting you will not sleep well….
When you wake up in the morning, you will be migrained…. In the evening, you will be bellyached
If you don’t leave quickly, what happened to Abacha will happen to you
If you don’t leave quickly, what happened to Yar’Adua will happen to you
The people of Nigeria say ENOUGH IS ENOUGH
@iam_TUNADEZ@AboderinA Being ‘picked on the street’ doesn’t make their actions smart, legal, or representative. Common sense also means judging people by what they actually do, not pretending random selection, legitimacy. Accountability isn’t criticism it’s basic…
@maduabu44 Shut your mouth.
Peter Obi didn’t “yield” to anyone he’s consistent unlike your desperate Tinubu bootlickers fabricating NDC propaganda.
Your lies about manipulated primaries and “special purpose vehicle” are the real fraud.
Focus on your failed APC and ADC instead of spreading hate. Clown.🤡 enikure
