Goodluck-Jonathan.webp
The Digest:

The Peoples Democratic Party’s National Working Committee, led by Dr. Tanimu Turaki, held a closed-door meeting with former President Goodluck Jonathan in Abuja on Tuesday evening. The session is part of the party’s ongoing high-level consultations to resolve its protracted internal crisis, which has deepened since the 2023 presidential primaries.

Key Points:
  • PDP NWC members met with ex-President Goodluck Jonathan in Maitama, Abuja
  • The meeting is aimed at resolving the party’s prolonged internal crisis
  • The PDP has been divided since its 2023 presidential primaries produced Atiku Abubakar
  • The party is split into two main factions: one led by Turaki and another loyal to FCT Minister Nyesom Wike
  • State chairmen and NWC members attended the evening consultation
  • The crisis contributed to the PDP’s defeat in the 2023 general elections
  • This is part of broader efforts to reunify the party ahead of future polls
Behind closed doors, past and present leaders seek common ground, a quiet effort to mend fractures in a house divided, where the path to unity is often walked in silence before the storm of public action.
