The National Democratic Party on Monday announced Ada Fredrick as its presidential candidate for the 2027 general elections.

The NDP National Publicity Secretary, Dr Emeka Wachuku, at a news conference in Abuja, expressed confidence that the party and its candidate have the capacity to secure a major victory at the polls.

Wachuku said that Fredrick emerged as the party’s standard-bearer through a consensus affirmation during the primaries held across all 36 states of the federation and the Federal Capital Territory.

He described the candidate as a “young and tenacious grassroots politician” who had demonstrated strong leadership capacity and consistent dedication to the cause of national renewal.

Wachuku said that the presidential candidate had initially founded the ‘Ward2Ward’, grassroots support group, before founding the NDP in 2026 to serve the country more effectively.
