A faction of the National Working Committee (NWC) of the Peoples Democratic Party has insisted that the already scheduled 100th National Executive Committee (NEC) of the party will go on as scheduled, insisting that it cannot be truncated.

At a press conference at the party’s National Headquarters on Sunday in Abuja, PDP Deputy National Chairman South, Amb. Taofeek Arapaja, comprising of 10 NWC members, maintained that the 100th NEC will go on as scheduled.

“We have called you to, through you, further update all members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and the general public on the activities of the Party especially with regard to the 100th meeting of the National Executive Committee (NEC) statutorily scheduled for tomorrow, Monday, 30th June, 2025 and the National Convention scheduled for Thursday 28th to Saturday, 30th August, 2025.

“For the avoidance of doubt, the National Working Committee (NWC) assures all Party members that the 100th NEC meeting will proceed as scheduled tomorrow Monday, 30th June, 2025 at the NEC Hall of the Wadata Plaza, PDP National Secretariat, Abuja.

“The 100th NEC meeting will among other things receive updates on the activities of the Zoning Committee and the National Convention Organizing Committee.

“As you are aware, the 100th meeting was unanimously scheduled by NEC at its 99th meeting held on Tuesday, 27th May, 2025. 

“By virtue of Section 31(3) of the Constitution of the PDP (as amended in 2017) the Monday, 30th June, 2025 date for the 100th NEC meeting is binding on all Organs and members, and as such no Organ, group or officer of the Party has the power to alter, change, vary, veto or convert the already convened NEC meeting.

“Contrary to a purported Notice being circulated in the social media suggesting that the 100th NEC meeting has been converted to a Special Expanded National Caucus meeting, the NWC states in clear terms that the said Notice did not emanate from the PDP and should be disregarded.

“The NWC emphasizes that there is no provision whatsoever for an “Expanded National Caucus” in the Constitution of the PDP or any Guideline of the Party.

“For the avoidance of doubt, Section 30 of the Constitution of the PDP is unambiguous in providing for a National Caucus for the Party with its composition, functions and meetings clearly spelt out, leaving no room for any form of expansion.

“The suggestion, proposal or announcement for a ‘Special Expanded National Caucus meeting’ is therefore unconstitutional and cannot take any decision for the PDP being not a recognized Organ or Body in the PDP” he said.

He said that PDP is a political party built on the foundation and pedestal of strict adherence to the Rule of Law, guided by the due process of the Party Constitution and the ethos of internal democracy, which values must be protected and preserved at all time.

The NWC acknowledged the support and solidarity of the members of the PDP and reassured them that the 100th NEC meeting and the National Convention will go on as scheduled by NEC.
