Sunday, November 8, 2026 -The Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has condemned the violent attack on members and coordinators of the Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, and the Obidient Movement in Delta State.
In a post on his verified X handle, Obi, who condemned the
attack, said the party would not tolerate such frequent attacks.
He said he was profoundly saddened and deeply disturbed by
the reports of violence directed at his coordinators, supporters, and fellow
citizens.
"I unequivocally condemn the attacks against our
coordinators, supporters, and fellow citizens who were merely exercising their
democratic rights. We won't take this anymore," Obi said.
According to him, political violence has no place in a
democracy and can never be justified.
He added that it is troubling that at a time when Nigeria
urgently needs responsible leadership, some individuals still believe that
political influence can be secured through thuggery, fear, and violence.
The former Anambra State governor urged the government and
security agencies to conduct an immediate and thorough investigation into the
attacks. He charged them to identify those responsible and ensure that they
face justice, irrespective of their political affiliations.
