Dr. ABC Nwolisa has reportedly demonstrated strong grassroots influence in the ongoing Apapa primaries of the Nigeria Democratic Congress, as massive voter turnout and long queues of supporters were witnessed across several voting centres.
Party members and observers described the atmosphere as resembling a general election rather than an internal party primary, with large numbers of delegates and supporters trooping out to participate in the exercise. The turnout is seen by many stakeholders as a reflection of growing interest in the party’s activities ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Dr. ABC Nwolisa, who recently declared his intention to contest for the Apapa Federal Constituency seat under the NDC platform, has continued to attract attention following his campaign messages centered on infrastructure, legislative oversight, environmental reforms, and constituency development.
Supporters at the venue claimed that the impressive turnout signaled a growing acceptance of Nwolisa’s candidacy within Apapa, while party officials maintained that the exercise was conducted in line with the guidelines established for the nationwide NDC primaries.
