The PDP has faced internal strife since the lead-up to the 2023 elections.

Party stakeholders have criticized Acting National Chairman, Umar Damagum, for failing to take decisive steps to reform the party.

The situation worsened when Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, persisted in his criticism of Rivers State Governor, Sim Fubara, and the PDP Governors Forum regarding the party’s structure.

The PUNCH reported that PDP BoT Chairman, Adolphus Nwabara, Secretary Senator Ahmed Makarfi, and other members held a closed-door meeting with Wike in Abuja on Tuesday.

Additionally, the BoT met with the Chairman of the PDP Governors Forum and Bauchi State Governor, Bala Mohammed, in the state capital on Wednesday.

The meeting between the National Assembly Caucus and the BoT is currently taking place at the PDP office, Legacy House, in Abuja.

Along with Nwabara and Makarfi, the meeting also has Senate Deputy Minority Leader, Lere Oyewumi, House of Representatives Minority Whip, Hon. Ali Isa JC, and Hon. Pastor Ojema Ojotu, in attendance.

The PUNCH learned that the BoT convened the meeting to assess the sentiment of the PDP caucus in the National Assembly regarding the party’s challenges and suggest recommendations for resolving the issues.
