NDC dismisses fake primary results, says exercise holds May 29

The Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) has vehemently dismissed circulating reports of its primary election results, labeling them as fake and misleading. The party emphasized that its primaries are officially scheduled to take place on May 29, 2026.

In a statement signed by its National Secretary, Ikenna Enekweizu, the NDC highlighted the impossibility and illogical nature of any results or winners emerging before the scheduled primaries. This clarification comes amid rumors that activist Aisha Yesufu was defeated in a bid for the NDC ticket for the Federal Capital Territory senatorial seat.

“

It is therefore impossible and illogical for any primary results or winners to have emerged when the primaries are yet to take place.

The party strongly urged the public and all Nigerians to disregard the fabricated results and false rumors. The NDC stressed that any information not originating from official party sources should be considered invalid. The party reiterated its commitment to a transparent and credible primary process, appealing to its supporters and members to stay vigilant and ignore unverified information.

“

We strongly urge the public and all well-meaning Nigerians to completely disregard the fake NDC primary results and false rumours currently circulating. Any result that does not emanate from official party sources should be disregarded.
