PDP Leadership Crisis: Makinde Faction Challenges INEC
The faction of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) loyal to Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde has expressed its discontent following the Independent National Electoral Commission's (INEC) recognition of the camp led by Nyesom Wike. In a statement issued on Monday, the Makinde faction indicated that they are awaiting a verdict from the Supreme Court regarding the ongoing leadership tussle within the party.
The statement highlighted their awareness of recent activities concerning the party's leadership and their hope that the Supreme Court will expedite its decision on the matter. The INEC's recognition of Wike's faction was confirmed on its website, listing Abdulrahman Moham and Samuel Anyanwu as the national chairman and secretary, respectively.
The Makinde faction described the situation as a crisis affecting the PDP, which they allege is being orchestrated by the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) under President Bola Tinubu. They concluded their statement with optimism for a fair judicial outcome concerning the internal affairs of the party.
