NDYC Endorses Peter Obi-Bala Mohammed Alliance
The Niger Delta Youth Congress (NDYC) has expressed its full support for the alliance between Bauchi State Governor, Bala Abdulkadir Mohammed, and Peter Obi, the 2023 Labour Party presidential candidate.
In a statement signed by its leader, Israel Uwejeyan, the NDYC praised the recent meeting between the two leaders, emphasizing that it was founded on mutual respect, national interest, and a shared vision for a stronger Nigeria. The group views this collaboration as a symbol of hope for millions of Nigerians.
The NDYC highlighted that Governor Mohammed has consistently shown his dedication to fostering unity, national cohesion, and progressive governance, while Peter Obi stands as an icon of integrity, economic expertise, and transformative leadership.
The group underscored that this partnership signals the beginning of a necessary political realignment in Nigeria.
Commending Governor Bala Mohammed’s call for a politics free from bitterness and his focus on national unity and inclusive governance, the NDYC described his approach as a reflection of his refined political ideology.
The group further stressed that a strategic alliance between the two leaders would mark the beginning of a new political era, one where governance is based on service, accountability, and national progress rather than political entitlement.
The NDYC called on Nigerians, particularly the youth, to support this new movement focused on innovation, competence, and a clear path toward national development.
The statement read: “In a time when Nigeria desperately needs pragmatic, forward-thinking, and people-centered leadership, the union of these two dynamic, young, and visionary leaders offers a beacon of hope for millions. Governor Mohammed has long shown his steadfast commitment to unity, national cohesion, and progressive governance, while Mr. Peter Obi remains a symbol of integrity, economic prowess, and transformative leadership.
“Their partnership is a clear indication that the moment for genuine political recalibration has arrived. This is also when the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) is proving to Nigerians that it is serious about change.
“Unlike the old order, which has long been defined by transactional politics and recycled leadership, the synergy between Bala Mohammed and Peter Obi represents the future—an era where competence, patriotism, and selfless service take priority over political convenience. In contrast to figures like Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, whose political journey has been mired in outdated power dynamics, these two leaders stand as embodiments of purposeful governance and a national renaissance.”
