Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) national leader Seriake Dickon and other top party members are in Kano State to iron out issues that have put Kano NDC and the Kwankwasiyya movement on a collision course.
According to NDC national publicity secretary Osa Director, the move is geared towards promoting unity, inclusion and wider participation as the party concludes its internal election process.
“The closed-door meeting was aimed at resolving the issues between the Kwankwasiya movement and the legacy officials of NDC in Kano State,” said Mr. Director in a statement.
The party said Dickson and other leaders are actively working to ensure that all stakeholders are involved in party affairs. It also stressed that no candidates would be imposed in Kano or elsewhere in the country.
“The NDC leadership will not impose candidates in Kano State, and indeed across the nation, as the party cherishes the virtues of internal democracy,” the statement added.
The party also dismissed reports claiming to show the results of its primary elections, insisting that no official results have been released.
“The NDC has not released any official results of its primary elections in any state. Hence, the public and party members are urged to disregard any such list in circulation,” the statement said.
