PDP Crisis: INEC Rejects Recognition Amid Wike vs. Makinde Leadership Dispute

The PDP is embroiled in a leadership crisis between factions led by Wike and Makinde, with INEC refusing to recognize either group due to ongoing legal battles. The conflict arose from disagreements over the party's national convention and leadership.

Wike's faction opposes the convention, while Makinde's faction supports it. The matter is further complicated by court rulings and defections within the party, potentially impacting the PDP's prospects in the 2023 general elections.
