NDC denies offering ticket to Obi, Kwankwaso, disowns X account

The Nigeria Democratic Congress has disowned an X account posting statements purportedly on its behalf, urging the public to rely only on its verified communication channels.

In a statement issued on Monday and signed by its founder and national leader, Seriake Dickson, the party said only information released through its recognised platforms and authorised officials should be considered authentic.

The disclaimer follows widespread reports generated by an unofficial account, @NDCNigNews, which claimed the party was offering its presidential ticket to Peter Obi and Rabiu Kwankwaso ahead of the 2027 general election.

“For the avoidance of doubt, all official communications of the party are released only through our verified and recognized platforms, as well as through duly authorized officials of the party,” the statement read.

The party listed its official social media handles as @nigeriandchq across X, Facebook, Instagram and TikTok, alongside its official website.

It urged the public, media and stakeholders to disregard statements from unofficial accounts and verify information through its recognised channels.
