The governors’ meeting, which had eight of the 13 PDP governors in attendance, resolved to work with the party’s leadership to resolve existing crises in the party. “We are not here, this NEC, to discuss a change of leadership. We are talking about resolving all the issues and going forward, so that at the end of the day, the timeliness allowed in the constitution for congresses and what have you, would have been done. But certainly, the public is free to permutate, and discuss. Of course, NEC will decide on some of these issues,” he said.

In another development, however, leaders of the party from the North-central zone insisted that the zone must produce the next national chairman of the party. As such, the North-central leaders unanimously directed the party’s Zonal Vice Chairman , Theophilus Dakkas Shan, to transmit the position of the zone to the National Working Committee ahead of the NEC meeting on Thursday.
