PDP Faces Crisis as Turaki and Wike Factions Plan Parallel NEC Meetings

The People's Democratic Party (PDP) is in turmoil as rival factions led by Kabiru Turaki and Nyesom Wike schedule separate National Executive Committee (NEC) meetings in Abuja. Turaki has accused Wike's faction of destabilizing the party, leading to a potential showdown.

Efforts are underway to avert clashes, with security agencies on alert. The crisis deepens as factions expel key members, including Wike and others.

Turaki's faction has submitted a formal petition to the police, seeking protection. The situation remains volatile ahead of the dual NEC meetings.
