The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP has described as incorrect the news making the round that the party may not longer hold its convention come October 30 and 31.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The party also said it is not aware of any judgement stopping it from going ahead with the convention.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Addressing the media on Monday, the\u00a0 National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan said, “the preparations for the national convention is in place, and that as far as the party is concerned, the date for the convention remains October 30 to 31st.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“As we speak, we read reports in so many media space that there are issues and that only three governors are working, that national convention committee are not meeting and the National Working Committee members are not in their offices. That is totally and absolutely incorrect.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“Some of your colleagues went upstairs into the National Committee Hall, to meet with members of the National Working Committee, who are taking their respective seats, and they are deliberating on the success of the forthcoming national convention. So, I want to bring to the attention of my dear colleagues, that the national convention organizing committees leadership is in town, and these are the chairman, the governor of Adamawa state governor, Mr. Umaru Fintiri, the Deputy Chairman, Governor Diri Duoye the governor of Bayelsa state, as well as the governor of Oyo state governor Makinde who is the Secretary of the committee, that the three of them, are in Abuja to oversight, the convention process, while all the respective subcommittees are working and that’s why I’m briefing you now because i am the Secretary of the publicity subcommittee.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“So, all the committees are working at about 15 sub-committees for the purpose of the convention, and they’re all working, and the leadership of the convention Committee as well are in town, and they’re all working as well.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“I want to assure you that we’ve secured the venues for the convention and this is the eagle square, as well as the point where delegates who arrive will be moved to the Eagles Square. So, in truth, the convention plans are on the way, and there are no issues as far as a national convention is concerned as we speak.”<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Asked about the judgement which seeks to embargo the convention, Ologbondiyan said, “As far as the People’s Democratic Party is concerned, the party does not work on speculations. The party don’t have a judgment before the party. You cannot be talking about court issues, it is only when there is a judgment before the court that we will begin to talk about court issues, as far as the party’s concern all the plans have been set out for the national convention on.”<\/div>\n
