Olieh Ndidi Christiana

Olieh Ndidi Christiana, also reported as Ndidi Christy Olieh, is the National Rescue Movement (NRM) candidate for Anambra North Senatorial District in the Senate election of 16 January 2027 (INEC final list, 12 September 2026). INEC lists her as a 43-year-old woman whose declared qualifications are the First School Leaving Certificate, NECO and a BSc; 2025 press reports of her INEC particulars name the BSc as from Nnamdi Azikiwe University, Awka. She was the NRM's candidate in the Anambra governorship election of 8 November 2025, one of two women among 16 candidates, with Ekene Reginald Ogbe as running mate. Her candidacy was disputed inside the party: Chief Edozie Njoku, who claims the NRM national chairmanship, said in June 2025 that the party had no governorship candidate, while the INEC-recognised leadership said she emerged from its April 2025 convention. She polled 36 votes; Charles Soludo (APGA) was re-elected. Reports at the time described her as the NRM's Anambra State chairperson (Peoples Gazette) or state spokesperson (ICIR). Details of her 2026 NRM senatorial primary were not found in public sources as of October 2026.
