The Abia State Chapter of the Nigerian Democratic Congress (NDC) has urged the general public to exercise caution over reports circulating from Zik FM concerning the party’s position on the 2027 presidential and governorship elections.
In a statement issued by the party, it advised members of the public, its supporters and media organizations to verify the authenticity of political reports through officially recognized NDC communication channels before accepting or disseminating them.
The party warned that the circulation of unverified information could create confusion, misunderstanding and unnecessary division among party members and the people of Abia State.
Addressing reports surrounding the proposed one-million-man march associated with the Labour Party, the Vote Peter Obi movement and the Vote Alex Otti campaign, the NDC Abia Chapter clarified its position on the forthcoming elections.
The party reaffirmed its support for Peter Obi in the 2027 presidential election while maintaining that Chief Sir Etugo Ndubuisi Ogah remains its governorship candidate for Abia State.
According to the party, support for Peter Obi at the presidential level can coexist with support for the NDC’s governorship candidate in Abia, urging supporters to distinguish between the different political platforms and their respective candidates.
The party further called on Ndi Abia to support candidates committed to good governance, accountability, transparency and sustainable development.
The NDC Abia Chapter therefore called on radio and television stations, newspapers, online news platforms, bloggers, social media influencers and other media practitioners to verify political statements with the appropriate party authorities before publishing or broadcasting them as the official position of the party.
The Chapter also called for the responsible dissemination of accurate information across the 17 Local Government Areas of Abia State and beyond to ensure that the public is properly informed.
Reiterating its message, the party urged its supporters and the general public to verify information before believing or sharing it.
The party’s message remains: Vote Peter Obi for President and Chief Sir Etugo Ndubuisi Ogah for Governor of Abia State in 2027.
Etugo Divine Mandate — Maka Odimma Ndi Abia!
