Breaking: PDP Leaders Agree Early National Convention As Soft Landing For Secondus

Leaders of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP on Tuesday resolved to hold an early national convention as a way of stemming the crisis arising from the agitation for the removal of Prince Uche Secondus as national chairman of the party.

In the same vein the stakeholders including governors, former governors, serving and former National Assembly members among others also requested the National Executive Committee, NEC to constitute a committee to zone national elective and party positions.

The resolutions following hours of meeting at the party’s national secretariat and issued by Governor Aminu Tambuwal, chairman of the PDP Governors Forum, reiterated the need for unity in the PDP in order to offer a ready platform as an alternative to what it described as the failed All Progressives Congress, APC administration.

The communique read thus:

The PDP Stakeholders held a meeting on Tuesday 10th August, 2021, at Wadata Plaza,, Abuja on the recent developments in the PDP.

2. There were extensive consultations with all major stakeholders in the Party including the Governors,  members of the Board of Trustees, former Presiding Officers and current Principal officers and Leaders from the National Assembly, former Governors,  former Ministers,  and indeed other leaders of the Party  with a view to bringing all tendencies within the Party together in view of the urgent task facing the Party as the only viable vehicle to checkmate the  abysmally poor governance of the APC led Federal Government.

3. The meeting deliberated extensively on the issues thrown up and resolved as follows:

a. That the Constitution,  traditions and practicebs of the Party should be strictly adhered to in finding solutions to any problems.

b. That all parties should sheath their sword in the greater interest of the PDP and the need to RESCUE Nigeria from the avoidable National malaise and drift occasioned by the APC administration.

c. That all processes leading to an early National Convention  in October be immediately activated by relevant Party organs, especially National Executive Committee (NEC).

d. That the Party should redouble efforts to provide a credible alternative leadership for Nigeria as it still remains the only hope for the Nigerian people for good governance.

e. The meeting requested the NEC to immediately constitute a Zoning Committee for Party Offices and another Committee for National elective Offices.

f. The meeting expressed appreciation to Party elders for their commitment and wisdom in handling Party affairs.

g. We shall overcome and restore peace, security and development once again to Nigeria.
