PDP Governors Urge Calm Before Appeal Court Ruling

The People's Democratic Party (PDP) Governors Forum, led by Senator Bala Mohammed, has issued a statement urging party members to remain calm ahead of the Appeal Court's ruling on a leadership dispute scheduled for March 9, 2026. The statement, signed by Dr. Emmanuel Agbo, the Director General of the PDP Governors Forum, emphasizes the importance of respecting the judicial process and the role of the judiciary in ensuring fair and impartial governance in Nigeria.

The governors reaffirmed their commitment to peace and urged members to demonstrate discipline and maturity in response to the court's judgment. They also indicated that the party leadership would convene immediately after the ruling to assess its implications and strategize for the upcoming 2027 general elections.

The forum reassured PDP members of the party's dedication to providing a credible platform for political aspirations, despite the challenges posed by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) regarding election timelines.
