NDC Unveils Obi As Presidential Candidate For 2027 General Elections

The national leadership of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), led by Senator Seriake Dickson, on Saturday unveiled a former governor of Anambra State, Peter Obi, as its presidential candidate for the 2027 general elections.

Obi emerged as the flag bearer at the special convention of the party in Abuja.

Following his adoption as the presidential candidate of the NDC, the 2023 presidential candidate of the Labour Party announced a former Kano governor and former Minister of Defence, Musa Kwakwanso, as his running mate.

Obi’s adoption came days after former Vice President Atiku Abubakar had on Wednesday been declared the winner of the presidential primary of the African Democratic Congress (ADC).

Obi’s emergence will see him square up against Tinubu and Atiku in the race to Aso Rock on January 16, 2027.
