The Presidential Candidate of Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), Mr. Peter Obi, will on Saturday, October 10, 2026, visit Onicha Local Government Area of Ebonyi State.

The visit follows an invitation extended to Obi by Chief Ogbonnaya Solomon Aguene, the Eze Ndi Igbo in Lagos State, who will host the presidential candidate and other distinguished guests at his family residence in Amainyima, Igboeze Onicha LGA.

Obi's presence at the ceremony is expected to add prominence to the occasion as the host celebrates the completion of his new home with family members, friends, political associates and other well-wishers.

Ahead of the visit, the Ebonyi State chapter of the NDC has called on its candidates, state and local government executives, party leaders, stakeholders and supporters across the state to turn out in large numbers to welcome the presidential candidate.

In an official invitation signed by the party's State Publicity Secretary, Nnanna Okereke, the state chapter described the visit as an opportunity for members to demonstrate unity, solidarity and commitment to the party's presidential candidate.

The party urged its members to participate fully in the occasion, expressing confidence that their presence would demonstrate the strength and togetherness of the NDC family in Ebonyi State.

The occasion is expected to bring together members of the NDC, community leaders, political stakeholders, friends and associates of the host to celebrate a significant milestone in his family's life.

Obi's attendance will be a special moment as they welcome the presidential candidate to share in their joy and celebrate the completion of their new residence.

The Ebonyi State chapter of the NDC has consequently encouraged party faithful and supporters to attend the ceremony and give Obi a warm reception.
