The Presidency has mocked the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) and its presidential candidate, Peter Obi, over the National Campaign Council list for the 2027 elections.

Naija News reports that the NDC announced its National Campaign Council with Seriake Dickson as Chairman, Peter Obi as Co-Chairman and National Chairman, Cleopas Moses Zuwoghe as Vice Chairman, with Rabiu Kwankwaso as Co-Vice-Chairman.

The list also includes a National Campaign Advisory Council headed by former Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Babachir Lawal.

The party unveiled Mallam Ibrahim Abdulkarim as Director-General, and the list also includes state coordinators.

The party said the campaign council would coordinate its campaigns across all elective positions, including the Presidency, National Assembly, governorship and State Houses of Assembly.

Reacting, the Special Adviser to President Bola Tinubu on Media and Policy Communications, Daniel Bwala, in a post on his verified 𝕏 handle on Sunday said the NDC campaign council list is full of content creators, and it was not surprising.

He said Peter Obi and the NDC stylishly refused to name their campaign media surrogates in the mainstream media masquerading as On-Air Personalities (OAP).

He wrote, “@PeterObi and NDC have released their list of campaign council members; and as expected it is filled with content creators. They stylishly refused to name their campaign media surrogates in the mainstream media masquerading as OAP.”
