The Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) has disowned an X account that has been posting statements and updates purporting to represent the party’s official position.
In a statement issued on Monday, the party noted that only
communications released through its verified and recognised platforms should be
regarded as authentic.
The disclaimer came after an unofficial account,
@NDCNigNews, generated widespread media attention by claiming that the NDC was
offering its presidential ticket to Peter Obi, 2023 presidential candidate of
Labour Party (LP) and Rabiu Kwankwaso, former governor of Kano, ahead of the
2027 general election.
Seriake Dickson, founder and national leader of the NDC, who
signed the statement, said the party appreciates the continued support and
confidence of Nigerians but moved to set the record straight.
“For the avoidance of doubt, all official communications of
the party are released only through our verified and recognized platforms, as
well as through duly authorized officials of the party,” the statement read.
“Our official channels on X (Twitter), Facebook, Instagram,
and TikTok are: @nigeriandchq. Our official website is also available for
authentic information.”
The party urged members of the public, the media, and all
stakeholders “to disregard statements from unofficial accounts and to verify
all information through our recognized communication channels”.
