The Screening and Clearance Committee of the Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, scrutinized the degree certificates, NYSC and age declaration documents of a leading NDC presidential aspirant, Peter Obi.

Obi highlighted that the Committee reviewed all his documents, including his degree certificates, NYSC credentials and age declarations.

He also responded to questions on his vision for a new Nigeria and the type of leadership the country urgently needs.

Thereafter, Obi was cleared and issued NDC presidential nomination form for the party's primary election.

Obi later visited a stalwart of the Party, Engr. Musa Rabi'u Kwankwaso, at his resident.

Peter Obi, in a statement, highlighted:

Yesterday, May 19th, in Abuja, I attended the Presidential screening organised by our party, which took over two and a half hours. They carefully reviewed all my documents, including my degree certificates, NYSC credentials, and age declarations.

During the process, I also addressed questions regarding my vision for a new Nigeria and the type of leadership our nation urgently needs right now. Following this, I was cleared and received the presidential nomination form I had previously paid for.

I would like to commend the screening committee, led by former governor Sam Egwu, for their thorough and professional approach. Additionally, I appreciate our party's leadership for upholding the democratic process.

A New Nigeria is POssible. - PO
