The party urged Nigerians, supporters and members to ignore any unofficial reports concerning the primaries, insisting that only information issued through recognised party channels should be trusted.

The Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) has announced that its party primaries will be held on Friday, May 29, 2026, while dismissing reports of purported winners and results already circulating online as fake.

In a statement released on Thursday by its National Secretary, Barrister Ikenna Morgan Enekweizu, the party described the circulation of alleged primary election outcomes before the exercise as misleading and illogical, stressing that no candidate could have emerged since the primaries had yet to take place.

“The Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) wishes to inform the general public that our party primaries are scheduled to hold tomorrow, 29th May 2026,” Enekweizu stated.
