 PDP Hails INEC’s Publication Of 2027 Candidates


The Peoples Democratic Party has welcomed the publication by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) of the names of candidates for the 2027 general election, describing the development as a proof of doubts over its ability to field a presidential candidate had been laid to rest.


A statement issued in Abuja by the party’s National Publicity Secretary, Jungudo Haruna Mohammed, said the release of the names of its presidential candidate, Senator Sandy Ojang Onor, and running mate, Alhaji Babangida Umar, alongside its National Assembly candidates, marked a significant milestone in its preparations for the 2027 polls.


The Party noted that the publication had effectively dispelled months of speculation and what it described as misinformation by political opponents who had claimed the party would be unable to present a presidential candidate.


It expressed appreciation to its members and supporters across the country and in the diaspora for remaining steadfast during what it described as a challenging period in the party’s history.


The statement further commended the Independent National Electoral Commission, the judiciary and security agencies for discharging their constitutional responsibilities, saying their commitment to the rule of law had strengthened public confidence in Nigeria’s democratic process.


The PDP reiterated its commitment to reconciliation and internal cohesion, extending what it called “an open hand” to aggrieved members.
