PDP NEC Appoints Substantive National Chairman

The PDP NEC has appointed a substantive National Chairman, Damagum, during an ongoing meeting at the party's national headquarters in Abuja. The meeting, which began at 2 pm, discussed key issues, including the report of the National Zoning Committee in preparation for the party's forthcoming national convention.

A party insider revealed that the session is crucial for the PDP as they strategize ahead of the 2027 general election. The meeting reflects the party's renewed determination to provide Nigerians with a credible opposition and prepare for victory in the next poll.

The NEC meeting also addressed accusations against top members, including Minister of the Federal Capital Territory Nyesom Wike and former Benue State governor Samuel Ortom, with a disciplinary committee set to recommend sanctions. The party's forthcoming national convention, scheduled for November 15-16 in Ibadan, Oyo State, will see the election of new national officers.
