2027: Babachir Lawal Announces NDC As New Party, Asks Sensible, Patriotic Nigerians To Follow Suit
Ahead of the 2027 general election, former Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Mr Babachir Lawal has announced the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) as his new party while urging sensible and patriotic Nigerians to follow suit.
This is coming three months after ending his membership of African Democratic Congress (ADC).
Team@orientactualmags.com learned that Mr Babachir Lawal, a founding member of APC, announced NDC as his new party in Abuja on Tuesday while also declaring support for the Peter Obi and Rabiu Kwankwaso’s presidential ticket.
‘Anybody in Nigeria who has the interest of our country at heart and sympathy for the suffering that is ongoing in our country, along with insecurity, hunger, ignorance and disease, will have no choice but to join a party that represents the future and have Peter and Kwankwaso as their candidates.
Every sensible and patriotic Nigerian ought to understand this. It is now convincing to partner with the NDC to see to the fulfilment of the very noble objective of installing Obi as the president and Kwankwaso as vice president. So, by the grace of God, we look forward to May 29, 2027, to celebrate the feat properly for the good of the country and future of generations yet unborn’ Mr Babachir said.
Receiving the former SGF into the party, NDC National Leader, Senator Seriake Dickson, described him as a political mobiliser and activist with extensive experience in Nigerian politics.
‘Babachir Lawal does not need any introduction. He was the secretary to the government of our country, who did well. But behind the official designations that are known, what is not known is that he’s a great mobiliser. He’s actually some sort of political activist also.
He has seen it all and seen parties that were promising but failed to deliver on the promised change. These are parties that have taken our country from top to bottom, and now they are even digging the ground to bury the country. On behalf of the national working committee and our candidates, Peter Obi and his running mate, Dr Rabiu Kwankwaso, we welcome you.
We are pleased to have you play a leadership role that only you can play at those levels. You will oversee the activities of the NDC and our campaigns in the North Eastern part of Nigeria. We count on you, therefore, to help resolve issues, give guidance and direction to the activities of all our candidates and our campaigns in those zones’ he said-Team@orientactualmags.com Do you have any information you wish to share with us?
