Ahead of the 2027 presidential election, the Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, Director of New Media and Strategic Communications, Theo Abu Agada, on Tuesday declared that Nigerians don’t need people too big to talk to them.
Agada made the remark while faulting President Bola Tinubu, who is the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, and the African Democratic Congress, ADC, presidential candidate, Atiku’s absence from the Peace Accord signing.
The Nigerian Bar Association, NBA, had organised a Peace Accord signing for political parties and their candidates in Port Harcourt, the Rivers State capital.
Faulting their absence, Agada said only the NDC’s presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has been interacting with Nigerians.
Posting on X, Agada wrote: “The presidential candidates of the APC and the ADC, President Bola Tinubu and Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, were conspicuously absent from the Peace Accord signing and the NBA event in Port Harcourt.
“Only the presidential candidate of our great party, the NDC, His Excellency Mr Peter Obi, has been the only major candidate in this election attending these important events.
“Nigerians do not need people who are too big to talk to them.
“Our candidate has been readily available, meeting and talking with Nigerians.”
