PDP National Legal Adviser Disowns ‘Illegal NWC’ Meeting via thisdaylive
The national legal adviser of the PDP, Emmanuel Enoidem, has alerted party members to an illegal NWC meeting about to commence at the party secretariat.
According to him, “.By Section 29 of the constitution of our party it is the national chairman or a summon backed by 2/3 members of the NWC that can validly convene a meeting of the NWC.“As a bona fide member of the NWC, to the best of my knowledge am not aware of any meeting of NWC summoned by the National chairman or in the manner provided aforesaid.”
He explained that the issue of resignation of any officer of the party at any level was a personal decision as stipulated in Sections 45 & 47 . “There is no provision of our constitution which donates powers to any organ, individuals or group of persons to ask an officer of the party to resign for any reason whatsoever as was purported in the so called press release,” he added.
The statement said that the said press release was an unfortunate assault and blatant violation of the provisions of the constitution and so it was illegal and unconstitutional.
