ABUJA – A member of the Peoples Democratic Party’s (PDP) Board of Trustees, Ejiofor Onyia, has confirmed that the party’s national convention will proceed as scheduled this weekend. The event is seen as critical for electing new leadership and resolving internal conflicts that have recently plagued the opposition party.
In a television interview monitored by CDA News, Onyia referenced a recent Supreme Court decision, stating it reinforces the party’s right to manage its internal affairs without judicial interference. He expressed confidence that the convention would be a step toward restoring the party’s former stature.
The PDP has been divided into factions, one loyal to Federal Capital Territory Minister Nyesom Wike and another chaired by Umar Damagum. The convention, set for Ibadan, aims to unify the party by electing a new executive body.
