The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) on Monday held its 100th National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting at its National Secretariat, Wadata Plaza, Abuja, after an earlier police siege at the venue.
The meeting had in attendance members of the Board of Trustees (BoT), National Assembly members, governors, and other members of the NEC.
The Acting National Chairman, Umar Damagun, in his opening remarks, noted that the gathering was the NEC meeting, and the decision was taken after the meeting with the governors.
He, therefore, urged members of the party to stop “demarketing” the party.
At the end of the meeting, members fixed July 23 for another NEC meeting to discuss other matters affecting the party as well as the convention. It was also agreed that Samuel Anyanwu should continue to serve as the National Secretary.
The NEC meeting followed a closed-door meeting by the governors elected on the platform of the party at the Bauchi State Governor’s Lodge in Asokoro, Abuja.
