The Vice Presidential candidate of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), Senator Rabiu Musa Kwankwaso, stated on Monday, November 9, 2026, that an NDC-led Federal Government under Mr. Peter Obi and himself will run an all-inclusive government designed to carry all Nigerians along in policy formulation and execution.
​Speaking at a political mobilization event held at 11:00 AM at the Gabriel Okara Cultural Centre in Yenagoa, Bayelsa State, Kwankwaso emphasized that Nigeria requires leadership that deliberately unifies the nation and respects public participation across all geopolitical zones.
​”What Nigeria needs at this crucial moment in our political history is leadership that unifies, listens, and carries every citizen along in both policy formulation and project implementation,” Kwankwaso declared to party faithful and supporters.
​The event, organised as part of the NDC’s political tour across the Niger Delta region, featured the formal presentation of party flags to NDC candidates contesting for seats in the National Assembly and the Bayelsa State House of Assembly.
​Kwankwaso noted that the Obi-Kwankwaso ticket brings together regional strengths and civic movements, combining the Obidient and Kwankwasiyya movements, to build a stable national consensus ahead of the January 16, 2027 polls.
​Confirming the details of the campaign event, Gabriel Ukuta, Coordinator of Ofurumapepe Media for the NDC Presidential Campaign Council, issued an official press statement highlighting the core objectives of the campaign visit.
​”The Nigeria Democratic Congress remains committed to offering Nigerians a broad-based, accountable, and citizen-centered government,” Ukuta stated. “The reception in Bayelsa demonstrates the electorate’s readiness for a genuine partnership between the leadership and the people.”
​With campaigns intensifying across the South-South and Northern regions, the NDC leadership announced plans to take its state-by-state mobilization drive to the South-East and North-Central zones in the coming weeks.
