The National Working Committee (NWC) of the Peoples Democratic Party
(PDP) has put on hold, all activities pertaining to the yet to be
inaugurated committee on the proposed PDP National Conference.
This decision is to create room for further consultations and exhaustive
consideration by critical stakeholders, of the report of the PDP Post
Election Assessment Committee, headed by the Deputy Senate President,
Senator Ike Ekweremadu, which is due for submission this month.
While the national leadership notes and appreciates the eagerness,
commitment and dedication of our leaders and members in the rebuilding
of the party, we have also noted the need to allow proper consideration
of the report of the Senator Ekweremadu-led Post Election Assessment
Committee accordingly, especially as that committee is headed by the
highest elected PDP member in the nation.
In that regard therefore, the NWC directs that all activities of the
said committee on the proposed PDP National Conference be put on hold
forthwith.
The consideration of the report of the PDP Post Election Assessment
Committee will include inputs from members of PDP leadership organs,
including PDP Governors’ Forum, PDP National Assembly Caucus, Board of
Trustees, National Caucus, National Working Committee (NWC) and the
National Executive Committee (NEC), immediately upon receipt of the
report.
Finally, the NWC reassures that in the final composition of all the
committees to be inaugurated by the leadership of the party in due
course, all critical stakeholders will be consulted and all necessary
interests accommodated.
