Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has said it’s National Executive Committee, as well as its Board of Trustees (BoT) would meet on April 18.

The PDP, in a statement by its National Publicity Secretary, Debo Ologunagba, yesterday night, said the meetings would be preceded by a meeting of the opposition party’s caucus.  The NEC meeting, which is the 98th, is coming after over 18 months.  Though the PDP Constitution stipulates that the NEC shall meet at least once in a quarter, the last time the party organ met was in the last quarter of 2022. The statement said the “BoT meeting will hold at the NEC Hall of the PDP National Secretariat at 10:00 am after which the NEC meeting commences at 2:00 pm at the same venue.

“Consequently, the meeting of National Caucus of our party has been scheduled for Wednesday, April 17, 2024.

“The NWC urges all members of NEC, BoT and the National Caucus to please take note of the scheduled dates accordingly.”
