The decision to form NUCF was taken during a consultative meeting of municipal officials from three key municipalities, including AKMWP (Association of Kohima Municipal Wards Panchayats), AWUMT (All Ward Union Mokokchung Town), and DUCCF (Dimapur Urban Council Chairmen Federation) along with representatives from the 26 councils in the state.

Thejao Sekhose (currently President of AKMWP) will be the President of NUCF; Limanungsang (currently President of AWUMT) will be the Vice President; and Zasivikho Zakiesato (currently President of DUCCF) will be the General Secretary.
