This was contained in a communiqué signed by the PDP National Publicity Secretary, Jungudo Haruna Mohammed at the end of the 105 meeting National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting held on Monday at the Minister’s residence in Abuja.
In the communiqué, NEC members welcomed and affirmed the judgment of the Federal High Court sitting in Ibadan, which upheld the legality of the Party’s leadership and administrative arrangements.
The party urged the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to recognize the duly constituted National Caretaker Committee of the PDP in line with the law.
PDP said it has set the party’s National Convention for March 28–29 in Abuja for the election of members of the National Working Committee and other statutory organs of
the Party.
In the light of this, the leadership called on “all members of the Party at all levels to remain united, disciplined, and loyal to the PDP, and to eschew actions capable of undermining Party cohesion, and to place the collective interest of the Party above personal considerations.”
“The Committee urged all stakeholders, supporters, and members of the PDP across the country and in the diaspora to remain steadfast, law-abiding, and committed to the ideals of the Party.”
Furthermore, NEC reaffirmed that the PDP remains committed to rebuilding a strong, disciplined, democratic, and electorally competitive party capable of providing credible leadership and governance to Nigerians.
