National Chairman of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC), Seriake Dickson, has expressed confidence that the party will overcome what he described as “federal might” in the 2027 general elections.

The former Bayelsa State governor also pledged that Nigerians would not be subjected to violence, intimidation, or the use of security operatives and armed thugs during the electoral process.

PulseNets learnt that Dickson made the remarks in a post published on his official X account, where he assured supporters that the party remains committed to protecting the sanctity of the ballot and ensuring that every lawful vote counts.

Highlighting the party’s position on free and fair elections, Dickson said:

“I want to assure you that every vote will count. There will be no room for violence, intimidation, or the deployment of security operatives and armed thugs against law-abiding citizens, as some people do.

“We believe the people’s will is supreme. Thank you once again for your prayers and support for me and for all the candidates of our party.
