The Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) has ratified former Labour Party presidential candidate Peter Obi as its presidential flagbearer for the 2027 general elections.
The ratification followed the party’s nationwide primary elections held on Saturday, during which Obi emerged as the sole aspirant on the party’s platform.
The event attracted top party figures, including vice-presidential hopeful Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, National Leader Seriake Dickson, and National Chairman Senator Cleopas Zuwoghe, alongside party members and supporters.
At the ceremony, the party officially presented its flag to Obi, who is expected to lead the NDC into the 2027 presidential election.
Officials of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) were also present to observe the exercise in line with electoral guidelines.
