The meeting, hosted at Dickson’s Abuja residence, comes as supporters grow increasingly anxious that factional disputes could undermine the coalition ahead of the 2027 general elections. While exact details of the rift remain under wraps, Dickson took to Facebook to reassure the public, stating that the discussions centered on party advancement and strategizing for political campaigns slated to kick off later this month. He strongly appealed to all stakeholders and members to maintain solidarity and focus on collective victory.
In a separate development, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has triggered controversy regarding the NDC’s Edo South senatorial candidate for the 2027 polls.

Condemning the error as suspected internal sabotage, former Senate Chief Whip Rowland Owie insisted that Aguebor won the primary monitored by INEC and vowed that the discrepancies would be firmly challenged.

“HE IS OUR BROTHER, NOT OUR ENEMY!” Labour Party Drops Massive Peace Olive Branch Over Peter Obi!
The Ebonyi State chapter of the Labour Party (LP) has called on the Minister of Works and former state governor, David Umahi, to prioritize infrastructure development and governance instead of engaging in what it views as divisive political attacks against former Anambra State Governor, Peter Obi.

The official statement was signed jointly by key LP candidates for 2027, including governorship candidate Splendour Oko Eze, House of Representatives candidate Ezeh Emmanuel Ezeh, and senatorial candidates Henry Udeh and Ogbodo Nwede Mitchell Nwabueze Michael.
Key Points and Appeals from the Labour Party
-
Preservation of Regional Ties: The LP cautioned leaders and Ndigbo across Nigeria and the diaspora against rhetoric that could damage deep-rooted social, cultural, and commercial relationships between Ebonyi and Anambra, asserting that Anambra people do not treat Ebonyi citizens as second-class citizens.
-
Interdependence and Commerce: Highlighting historical ties, the party pointed to prominent Anambra businessmen—such as Arthur Eze, Cletus Ibeto, and Innocent Chukwuma (Innoson)—who have contributed significantly to economic development in Ebonyi.
-
Stance on Peter Obi: Reaffirming strong regional solidarity, the party explicitly declared: “Peter Obi remains our brother, not our enemy”.
-
Focus on Ministerial Duties: The LP urged Umahi to concentrate on delivering critical national infrastructure—such as the Enugu-Abakaliki Federal Highway and the Enugu-Onitsha Expressway—instead of driving political divisions. They also raised local concerns over how the Vanco Flyover project in Abakaliki has disrupted local traders and businesses.
-
Street Renaming Controversy: Addressing criticisms regarding the alleged removal or renaming of Abakaliki Street in Anambra State, the party noted that Obi should not be held accountable for decisions made by subsequent administrations.
-
Prioritizing the People: The party urged political leaders across the South-East (Anambra, Imo, Enugu, Abia, and Ebonyi) to look past partisan interests and avoid letting zoning debates overshadow vital issues like poverty, economic empowerment, and good governance.
