PDP (1).webp

The Digest:

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has issued a strong warning to its members who are publicly supporting President Bola Tinubu, stating that such "anti-party activities" are a violation of the party's constitution and will lead to "stiffer sanctions."

Key Points:
  • The PDP's National Working Committee (NWC) reprimanded members for their actions.
  • The party cited Section 10 (6) of its constitution, which prohibits members from undermining the party.
  • The NWC noted these activities cause "division and disaffection" and could diminish electoral fortune.
  • Former Ekiti State Governor Ayodele Fayose publicly endorsed Tinubu for a second term.
  • Osun State Governor Ademola Adeleke and the state's PDP also declared support for Tinubu.
  • The PDP is gearing up for its National Convention in November 2025 in Ibadan.
The PDP's strong stance underscores the internal conflict and challenges faced by the party as it attempts to maintain unity ahead of the 2027 general elections.
