PDP Faction Vows to Resist Intimidation Ahead of 2027
The Tanimu Turaki-led faction of the People's Democratic Party (PDP) has publicly committed to resisting any attempts at intimidation as they prepare for the 2027 general elections. This statement was made at the party's national secretariat by Ini Ememobong, the party's information proprietor.
The faction specifically addressed threats from the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, who allegedly attempted to shut down their event venue. The faction's lawyer has been directed to remind relevant security agencies that they have satisfied all requirements for their scheduled event.
The presidential candidacy ratification ceremony for Goodluck Jonathan is set to take place on Saturday, May 30, 2026, at the Class Event Centre in Wuse 2, Abuja. The faction expressed concerns over the government's attempts to suppress political dissent and emphasized their commitment to democratic principles.
