In a recent development, the Pan Niger Delta Forum (PANDEF) has clarified that it has not endorsed any presidential candidate for the upcoming 2027 elections. This comes amidst speculations that the group had endorsed a particular candidate. According to a report by Punch Newspapers, the forum’s National Publicity Secretary, Senator Edime Ekpo, stated that PANDEF is a body that focuses on issues affecting the Niger Delta region and does not engage in political endorsements. He urged South-South voters to choose leaders based on their manifestos and track records, rather than relying on endorsements. This clarification by PANDEF is significant, as the Niger Delta region plays a crucial role in Nigerian politics, especially during presidential elections. It is important for voters to make informed decisions, and clarifications like this from influential bodies help in that process. (Source: Punch Newspapers)
