The People’s Democratic Party Caucus is now participating in a meeting that is being held behind closed doors at the National Assembly. The Board of Trustees of the PDP is hosting the meeting.
According to a report, the People’s Democratic Party has been experiencing internal struggle ever since the elections in 2023 began. This has been a source of concern for the party.
In the midst of a crucial period in the annals of political history, the many factions within the party have been in conflict with one another, which has resulted in the party’s unity and strategic direction being hindered.
It has been brought to the attention of a number of stakeholders that Mr. Umar Damagum, who is now serving as the Acting National Chairman of the party, has failed to take major moves to reform the party.
As a result of Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, continuing to condemn Sim Fubara, the Governor of Rivers State, and the PDP Governors Forum with reference to the structure of the party, the situation got much more serious than it already was.
Wike met with Adolphus Nwabara, the Chairman of the Board of Trustees of the People’s Democratic Party, Secretary Senator Ahmed Makarfi, and other members of the party in Abuja on Tuesday. Wike was also present throughout the meeting.
Furthermore, on Wednesday, the Board of Trade spoke with Bala Mohammed, the Governor of Bauchi State and the Chairman of the Professional Democratic Party Governors Forum. The meeting took place in the state capital of Bauchi.
In this very moment, the meeting between the National Assembly Caucus and the Board of Trade is taking place in the office of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), which is situated in Abuja at Legacy House.
Nwabara and Makarfi, as well as Lere Oyewumi, the Deputy Minority Leader of the Senate, the Minority Whip of the House of Representatives, the Honourable Ali Isa JC, and the Honourable Pastor Ojema Ojotu, are present at the meeting.
The Board of Directors called a meeting to assess how the PDP caucus in the National Assembly felt about the difficulties the party was facing and to offer suggestions for how to fix the issues. This is a very likely explanation for why the meeting was called.
