The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, faction led by Abubakar Baraje has announced the appointment of more members into its National Working Committee, NWC.
The appointment comes amidst the security siege on its secretariat, Abuja that has led to the closure of the secretariat since Saturday.
A statement issued on Monday by the faction’s national secretary, Olagunsoye Oyinlola, said stakeholders of the party across the country at a meeting in Abuja ratified the appointment of the NWC members.
The NWC members according to the statement are Abubakar Baraje, Chairman; Sam Jaja, Deputy National Chairman; Olagunsoye Oyinlola, National Secretary; and Maode Hiliya, Deputy National Secretary.
Others are Timi Frank, National Youth Leader; Binta Koje, National woman leader; Nasir Issa, National Organising Secretary; Eze Chukwuemeka, National Publicity Secretary; Hon Wadada, National Financial Secretary; and Tanko Gomna, National treasurer.
The statement added that “the positions of National Auditor and that of National Legal Adviser which are zoned to the South East and South West respectfully, will be announced soon.”
Meanwhile, PREMIUM TIMES visited the national secretariat of the faction on Monday and observed that the place is still sealed by the police.
An Armoured Personnel Carrier, APC, with registration number NPF 5229 C was parked at the main entrance to the street while about a dozen mobile policemen were seen stationed in various spots along the road leading to the office.
Monday’s statement was also quiet about the faction’s threat to sue the Inspector General of Police over the closure of the secretariat.

GEJ should deploy those armour tanks to where they are needed in the kidnappers or BH dens
ReplyDeleteThis is getting more interesting. GEJ should dialogue with his aggreived colleagues and stop the fruitless show of bravado.
ReplyDeleteSee men on HIGH TABLE though, some people are annoyed.
ReplyDeleteUnderstanding shall never reign in the camp of PDP for ever more.
GEJ will end up messing himself. If he is good and competent the way he and his sycophants are claiming, he doesnt need to fight or force himself to power, Nigerians will fight and put him the way they did in 2011. He is a failure.
