Turaki-led PDP NWC Faces Recognition Issue by INEC Amid Court Dispute
The Turaki-led PDP National Working Committee (NWC) is in a standoff with INEC as the electoral body declines to recognize them following a convention held in Ibadan, Oyo State. This decision stems from a pending court case challenging the legitimacy of the convention.
The NWC, backed by governors like Seyi Makinde and Bala Mohammed, produced a new set of national officers, leading to conflicting court rulings. INEC's response indicates that they cannot update their records until the legal issues are resolved.
The situation has escalated with the emergence of rival factions and parallel committees within the party.
