Enekweizu said the gathering is aimed at fostering closer interaction between the party leadership, aspirants, and supporters who have remained committed to the growth and expansion of the NDC across Nigeria and beyond.

According to him, the event forms part of the party’s broader vision of building a united and inclusive political family.
“It is part of our vision of making the NDC one true united and closely knit family, where everyone is important,” Enekweizu stated.
The NDC scribe added that the dinner is designed not only as a social gathering but also as a platform to reinforce party cohesion and deepen relationships among members and aspirants.
The statement emphasized that attendance at the event is strictly by invitation, underscoring its exclusive nature and targeted engagement with party stakeholders.
Political observers see the dinner as a strategic move by the relatively new political platform to consolidate its internal structures and strengthen loyalty among its members as it seeks wider national acceptance.
