PDP Holds 98th NEC Meeting With Wike, Fubara, Others In Attendance 

The People democratic Party (PDP) is holding its 98th National Executive Committee meeting at the PDP National Secretariat in Abuja. This is the 98th NEC and the first time all PDP leaders will be attending the Party’s meeting since the 2023 election.

The choice of Atiku as the presidential candidate of the PDP tore the party in two, with Wike and some other then-serving governors forming a G-5 movement, insisting then that power must shift to the South, and significantly withdrawing their support.

At the opening of the 98 NEC meeting, acting National Chairman Umar Damagum expressed hope that the decisions that will be taken will strengthen the party.

On his part, the Chairman of the Board of Trustees Adolphus Wabara noted that there is an urgent need for reconciliation.

He called on the NEC to tackle the

crisis that has engulfed the party.

The presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in last year’s election Atiku Abubakar; his running mate Ifeanyi Okowa; FCT Minister Nyesom Wike; Rivers State Governor Siminalaye Fubara are among the dignitaries attending the party’s National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting.
