The Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) has directed its state and Local Government Area (LGA) chairmen to compile and harmonise party agents for the 2027 general elections. The party has given them two weeks to submit final lists for approval by the party leadership. This move is in line with the provisions of the Electoral Act, 2026. The NDC aims to ensure a robust, issue-based campaign with all necessary structures in place for victory.
According to a statement signed by the National Publicity Secretary, Osa Director, the party has instructed state and LGA chairmen to convene meetings with candidates and stakeholders to collate and harmonise the list of agents. Two separate sets of agents will be compiled: one for the National Assembly elections and another for the governorship and state House of Assembly elections. The lists will be scrutinised and ratified by the party leadership before training commences.
The NDC has specified that the final lists must be counter-signed by the state chairmen and the respective candidates to authenticate the nominations and establish ownership. In cases where disagreements arise between party leadership and candidates over the choice of agents, the candidate's choice will prevail. This ensures that the party agents are legitimate and acceptable to all parties involved.
The party's leadership, including its presidential candidate and running mate, will scrutinise and ratify the lists of party agents. This move demonstrates the party's commitment to transparency and fairness in the electoral process. The NDC has assured its members and supporters that its structures are in place for a successful campaign.
