Security operatives order PDP BoT members out of meeting hall

Security operatives deployed to the National Secretariat of the main opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) have barred members of the Board of Trustees (BoT) from holding their meeting at the party headquarters. 

 

As at the time of filing this report, some of the members were seen discussing the situation in hushed tunes.

 

Daily Trust gathered the security operatives were ordered to make sure that no meeting takes place at the party headquarters.

 

The operatives who were in their numbers stormed the NEC hall where the meeting was supposed to hold and asked those present to leave.

 

Daily Trust correspondent heard a senior officer telling his subordinates that some of the operatives should make sure everyone leaves the vicinity.

 

“Make sure nobody is in the hall there. That is the instruction. I heard there is another hall upstairs. Make sure nobody is meeting there,” he ordered.

 

The PDP has been embroiled in crisis since the conduct of the presidential primaries for the 2023 general elections with almost all the organs divided into two camps.

 

The latest crisis over who is the National Secretary of the party has sparked confusion, with the acting National Chairman Ambassador Umar Damagum and the Deputy National Chairman South, Taofeak Arapaja leading different camps of the NWC.
