PDP holds make-or-break NEC meeting over national convention, zoning formula

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is holding a crucial National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting to finalize plans for its November 2025 national convention and ratify the zoning formula report. The meeting, taking place in Abuja, will involve consultations with key party leaders to ensure a smooth process.

The NEC session will include discussions on power-sharing between the North and South, as well as among the six geopolitical zones. The party's National Working Committee (NWC), National Caucus, and Board of Trustees (BoT) are also meeting to align their agendas.

Ahead of the NEC meeting, PDP leaders from the southern part of the country met to strategize on zoning issues. The party is set to begin zonal meetings on Tuesday to further discuss the national office allocations.

Overall, the NEC meeting is crucial for the PDP's future direction and leadership decisions.
