The Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) Director of New Media and Strategic Communications, Theo Abu Agada, has described the party’s presidential candidate, Peter Obi, as Nigeria’s next president.
Agada also said the 2027 presidential election would produce what he described as the biggest political upset in the country’s modern history.
He made the remarks while reacting to Obi’s position that the OK Movement, Obidient Movement, Kwankwasiyya and other groups backing the NDC should operate strictly as support groups rather than assume the functions of the political party.
Obi had said: “NDC is the political party we all belong to and agree with the position of the National Leader, Senator Henry Seriake Dickson.
“OK Movement, Obidient Movement, Kwankwasiyya and other supporting groups are supporting groups. They must play their role in supporting the party; they should not play the role of the party.”
Reacting in a post on X, Agada expressed support for Obi’s clarification, while linking it to the party’s preparations for the 2027 election.
“A big thank you to my presidential candidate, His Excellency Mr. Peter Obi, the next President of Nigeria, by the special grace of God and the votes of the Nigerian people, for this timely clarification.
“We are together on this project, and Nigerians are going to witness the biggest political upset in our modern history. Be there and be part of history.”
Agada’s statement comes as the NDC and its affiliated support groups continue to define their respective roles ahead of the 2027 general elections.
