The Digest:

A faction of the Peoples Democratic Party aligned with FCT Minister Nyesom Wike has summoned urgent meetings of its National Executive Committee and Board of Trustees for Tuesday in Abuja. According to TheCable, the sessions called by Abdulrahman Mohammed's group will address "crucial matters" at the party's Wadata Plaza secretariat, signaling escalating tensions within the opposition party's leadership.

Key Points:
  • The Wike-aligned PDP faction has called emergency NEC and BoT meetings.
  • The meetings are scheduled for Tuesday at PDP's Abuja secretariat.
  • BoT will convene at 11 am, followed by NEC at 2 pm.
  • The notice was signed by Samuel Anyanwu, a known Wike ally.
  • Attendance was declared compulsory for both sessions.
  • This marks the 103rd emergency NEC meeting in party history.
  • The faction is led by Abdulrahman Mohammed.
As competing power centers within Nigeria's main opposition party convene under emergency circumstances, the gatherings reveal deepening fractures—where every summoned meeting becomes another front in the struggle for political control.
