NDC Accuses APC Of Inducement, Announces Fresh Primaries

The Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) has accused the All Progressives Congress (APC) of providing cash, political appointments and different materials incentives to induce a few of its candidates to defect to the ruling get together.

The NDC National Publicity Secretary, Osa Director, who disclosed this in a press release on Tuesday, stated in step with the provisions of the Electoral Act, 2026, the get together will conduct contemporary primaries to fill the vacancies created by the defection of a few of its candidates to the APC.

“It has come to the eye of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) that some candidates of our get together have been bribed by the APC to defect to the ruling and ruinous All Progressives Congress (APC), clearly for pecuniary causes.

“The NDC is totally conscious of the determined and malicious techniques of the APC, which has resorted to providing cash, political appointments, and different materials incentives to induce some money-minded candidates of our get together to leap ship and defect to its sinking fold.

“For those that have fallen for this bait, it’s clear that they lack the values, virtues, and ideological dedication related to our nice get together. They have been by no means actually of us. To them, we are saying good riddance to unhealthy garbage, and we want them luck of their political misadventures.

“In line with the provisions of the Electoral Act, 2026, the party will immediately conduct fresh congresses to elect credible, competent, and trustworthy candidates to replace the defectors in the affected constituencies,” the get together stated.

NDC reassured get together members, supporters, and well-meaning Nigerians to not be perturbed by the antics of the ruling get together in bribing just a few of its members.

“These are the final kicks of a dying horse that has seen the handwriting on the wall of its imminent defeat.

“The NDC remains resolutely committed to its historic mission of rescuing our country from the vice grip of the buccaneers in power and giving Nigerians the good governance, security, and prosperity they so richly desire,” the get together added.
