The leadership of the United Kingdom Chapter of the Nigerian Democratic Congress, NDC, has reaffirmed its commitment to the growth and development of the party following a high-level meeting with the party’s National Leader, Senator Seriake Dickson, in London.
The NDC-UK Executive Committee paid a courtesy visit to Senator Dickson at the London Park Lane Hilton Hotel on Saturday, where members of the chapter and representatives of the Nigerian community from across Great Britain and Ireland interacted with the former Bayelsa State governor.
The meeting provided an opportunity for Senator Dickson to brief party members and supporters on developments within the NDC, the party’s progress since its formation, and preparations for the forthcoming general election.
Senator Dickson was in London while returning to Nigeria from the Netherlands, where he had inaugurated the NDC Netherlands Chapter.
During the interaction, the National Leader expressed confidence in the party’s leadership and presidential ticket. He also called on institutions and officials responsible for conducting the elections to uphold integrity, fairness, responsibility and patriotism throughout the electoral process.
The NDC-UK Country Chairman, Princewill Urum, thanked Senator Dickson for his leadership and reaffirmed the commitment of the UK Chapter to advancing the objectives and programmes of the party.
Also present at the meeting was the leader of COPDEM, the Coalition for the Protection of Democracy, a Nigerian and global political network.
The COPDEM leader commended what he described as the direction and progress of the NDC, and said the organisation would deploy its available resources and personnel in support of initiatives aimed at promoting democratic participation and a credible electoral process in Nigeria.
