The Chairman, Mr Goddie Akpama stated this in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Tuesday in Calabar.

He described the party as a growing political force, saying that it has gained momentum in the last 48 hours.
“The NDC represents a new direction for Nigeria, the party remains committed to providing credible leadership.
“The party is aligning with key political figures to strengthen its structure and national appeal,” he said.

Akpama further said that the party was working to consolidate its base, and position itself as a viable alternative political platform that was determined to take over leadership at the national and state levels.
