ABUJA – The upcoming national convention of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is in jeopardy, according to a damning internal report that warns of potential legal and structural breakdown.
A committee from the party’s Board of Trustees (BOT) has raised serious concerns, stating that multiple court orders and unresolved disputes over state congresses could invalidate the event. The report cautions that the electoral body, INEC, may refuse to monitor the convention due to these ongoing legal issues.
The findings have intensified a war of words within the party. While some stakeholders are calling for a delay to resolve the conflicts, PDP National Financial Secretary Daniel Woyengikuro insists the convention will proceed as planned.
“Our convention is holding, please,” Woyengikuro stated, dismissing critics as “self-styled acting chairmen.”
Despite these assurances, the BOT report recommends caution, suggesting that an all-inclusive caretaker committee might be necessary to stabilize the party and prevent a crisis that could impact its future electoral prospects.
