The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has once again rescheduled its National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting, now set for 15 May.
In a notice on Sunday, the party’s National Secretary, Sunday Udeh-Okoye, stated that the shift from the initial 13 March date was to allow for the conclusion of pending zonal, state, local government, and ward congresses, as well as further consultations to ensure a hitch-free meeting.
The NEC meeting has faced multiple postponements. It was initially scheduled for 15 August 2024, but was later moved to 24 October. It was then pushed to 28 November before being rescheduled to February, 2025 with 13 March being the last agreed date before the latest adjustment.
Udeh-Okoye explained that the decision to reschedule was taken after extensive consultations by the National Working Committee (NWC) with party leaders, stakeholders, and relevant organs, including the Board of Trustees (BoT), the PDP Governors’ Forum, and the party’s National Assembly Caucus.
‘All NEC members should please note the change of date and be guided accordingly. The NWC sincerely regrets any inconveniences this change of date will cause distinguished members of NEC’, Udeh-Okoye said.
