PDP Crisis: Wike-Backed Committee Sets State Congresses Amid Turmoil

The People's Democratic Party (PDP) faces internal turmoil as a caretaker committee, under Moham Abdulrahman, schedules state congresses for January 9, 2026. This move follows disagreements within the party involving influential figures like Nyesom Wike and Tanimu Turaki.

The committee aims to oversee the affairs of the party in several states pending the outcome of the upcoming congresses. Turaki's leadership has been challenged, with calls for proof of legitimacy.

The PDP remains focused on unity and legitimacy amidst these internal power struggles.
