The Peoples Democratic Party’s (PDP) Board of Trustees has raised concerns about the recent state congresses conducted by the party’s national leadership. Adolphus Wabara, the chairman of the PDP BoT and former Senate President, expressed these concerns during the 78th meeting of the party’s advisory organ in Abuja. He highlighted discrepancies in the congresses, citing instances where they didn’t follow party guidelines or didn’t hold as scheduled.<\/p>\n
Wabara emphasized the need for immediate action, calling on the National Working Committee to address these issues swiftly. He stressed that any deviations from PDP guidelines must be corrected, and new dates should be scheduled for congresses that didn’t hold. This ensures all party members have a fair and transparent opportunity to participate in the democratic process.<\/p>\n
It’s worth noting that the PDP has experienced similar issues in the past. For instance, the party postponed its Ward and Local Government Council congresses in Abia and Ebonyi states earlier this year, citing the need to address internal concerns. The party notified the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) of the postponement.<\/p>\n
The BoT’s concerns reflect the ongoing challenges within the PDP. Wabara’s statement underscores the importance of adherence to party guidelines and the need for transparency in the democratic process.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
