The Board of Trustees, BoT, of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has asked the leaders of the party from the North-Central to produce the replacement of former National Chairman, Iyorchia Ayu.
The call was contained in a communique read by the BoT Chairman, Adolphus Wabara, at the end of an emergency meeting on Thursday in Abuja.
The BoT urged the party leaders from the zone to convene a meeting of stakeholders to nominate a replacement for the former national chairman.
According to the BoT, the board membersat the meeting thoroughly assessed the state of affairs of the party and the country.
The BoT expressed deep worry over the current state of affairs in the PDP, particularly with regards to the administration of the party.
The BoT demanded that the National Working Committee, NWC, should immediately commence the restoration of internal harmony, unity, stability and public confidence in the party.
According to the communique, this should be done by respecting the PDP constitution and adhering to the zoning of NWC offices to the various geo-political zones in the country.
“BoT calls on the PDP Governors’ Forum to be more united and work along with other organs of the party to resolve issues in the party expeditiously.
”The BoT is deeply disappointed over the continued shifting by the NWC in convening a National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting.
“This delay not only undermine the trust and confidence of our members, but portrays our party as having been hijacked by certain interests.
“The BoT demands that the NWC should show leadership, honour its word and convene the NEC meeting, as scheduled in February 2025.
“This is critical for resolving pressing issues and charting a clear path forward for the party. Any further postponement will exacerbate existing challenges and may spell doom for our party,” the communique read.
