The Senate caucus of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) on Thursday, initiated efforts to resolve the ongoing crisis within the party.
Naija News reports that the internal conflicts within Nigeria’s opposition party, the PDP, escalated dramatically last week, as the National Working Committee (NWC) grappled with a wave of suspensions among its senior members.
The crisis has been simmering since the 2023 general elections and recently took a sharper turn with mounting divisions and an increasing factional divide.
Recall the Peoples Democratic Party Governors Forum (PDP-GF) directed conflicting party members to return to their previous positions.
The chairman of the forum and governor of Bauchi State, Bala Mohammed, announced this following the governors’ meeting that concluded in the early morning of Tuesday.
However, the decision by the PDP Senate caucus to resolve the crisis came after a closed-door meeting that lasted over three hours, chaired by Senate Minority Leader Senator Abba Moro.
Addressing the press post-meeting, Senator Moro, representing Benue South Senatorial District, revealed that an expanded committee, including former PDP governors and prominent party leaders, has been established to engage with discontented members.
He explained that the committee is tasked with identifying grievances and fostering a peaceful resolution, after which they will submit their findings to help the party move forward.
