PDP Sets Up 13-Member Caretaker Committee as NWC Tenure Expires

The Peoples Democratic Party has named a 13-member National Caretaker Committee to oversee its operations as the tenure of the National Working Committee ends on Tuesday.

The decision emerged from the party’s 104th National Executive Committee meeting in Abuja, where leaders resolved to put an interim structure in place until a national convention is held.

The committee is chaired by factional National Chairman Abdulrahman Mohammed, with Senator Samuel Anyanwu serving as secretary. Other members include Kamaldeen Ajibade, Umar M. Bature, Kyari Grema, Janguda Haruna Mohammed, Okechukwu Osuana, Senator Nwogu Olaka, Senator Sandy Onor, Prof. Adenike Ogunse, Bisi Kolawole, Deji Doherty and Ibrahim Bala Aboki.

The committee has a 60-day mandate to steer the party, complete pending congresses and organise a national convention.
