Addressing rumors that the NLC had set conditions for endorsing the Caretaker Committee, Ndubuaku clarified that the NLC had been consulted throughout the process and is supportive of the new leadership structure.
He underscored the NLC’s commitment to democratic principles and its stance on ensuring fair opportunities for all candidates in elections.

Noting the party’s recent victories in Lagos and Abuja as evidence of its growth potential, Ndubuaku called on all stakeholders to unite behind the new leadership. He highlighted Usman’s exceptional integrity and leadership skills as pivotal in the party’s efforts to reposition and strengthen its position.
