A new controversy has emerged within the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) concerning the alleged direct submission of a candidates' list from the recent governorship, National Assembly, and House of Assembly primaries in Abia State. This action is reportedly attributed to Chief Asukewe Ikoawaji, the Chairman of the Primary Election Committee, who is accused of bypassing established protocols by submitting the list directly to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC). The situation has sparked internal disputes within the party, raising concerns about the legitimacy of the candidate selection process. Party officials are now calling for clarification and adherence to the proper procedures in candidate nominations.
