The Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) has disowned 10 candidates listed by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) for the 2027 Anambra State House of Assembly elections. The party claims it did not nominate these individuals or submit their Form EC9E documents, which are required for candidate registration. The NDC has called for an electronic audit of INEC's nomination portal to investigate how these names were added to the system. The party insists that only candidates who passed its internal appeal process were submitted to INEC, but those names were rejected, and unauthorized individuals were published instead. This issue follows previous accusations by the NDC that INEC replaced authorized candidates with unfamiliar names, potentially causing confusion and internal conflict among opposition parties ahead of the 2027 elections.
