Seriake Dickson, national leader of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), has dismissed suggestions that the party should be grateful to Peter Obi or any other political figure for joining. Speaking on Arise Television, he said the NDC is doing candidates a favour by granting them its platform. He urged Obi’s supporters to stop attacking the party or its leaders, warning that such actions undermine the political vehicle carrying their preferred candidate. Dickson insisted there is no crisis within the NDC.
Key Points:
Dickson’s remarks signal tension between the NDC leadership and some Obidient supporters.
If internal conflicts persist, the NDC’s 2027 campaign could be weakened.
Supporters attacking the party may alienate the very platform their candidate relies on.
Dickson asserts he could have run for president himself, claiming no one is more qualified.
The NDC grew before Obi and Kwankwaso joined, meaning the party is not dependent on any single individual.
Dickson insists the NDC is working well with Obi, but his defensive tone suggests underlying friction that must be managed ahead of 2027.Thank you for reading our news today. Please kindly click the Read Original Button at the top to read more of the original content of this article. God bless you.
