The presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), Peter Obi, on Friday held a closed-door meeting with the party’s National Leader, Senator Henry Seriake Dickson, and members of the National Working Committee (NWC) in a bid to resolve issues arising from the party’s recent primary elections.
The meeting, which lasted about three hours, came amid growing concerns over internal disagreements and fallout from the NDC primaries ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Dickson disclosed details of the meeting in a statement posted on his verified Facebook page shortly after the gathering.
According to the former Bayelsa State governor, the meeting provided an opportunity for party leaders to review recent developments within the NDC and address concerns raised by members.
Dickson said both leaders remained united in their commitment to securing victory for the NDC and removing the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) from power in 2027.
He acknowledged that disagreements had emerged within the party but said a framework had been agreed upon to manage such concerns moving forward.
The NDC leader urged party members to put aside internal disputes and concentrate on strengthening the party ahead of future elections.
According to Dickson, continuous consultations among party leaders and stakeholders would help strengthen unity and cohesion within the NDC.
