Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has postponed its National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting scheduled to hold on October 24 to, November 28.

Gatekeepers News reports that Governor of Bauchi state and chairman of the forum, Bala Mohammed announced this while reading a communique issued by PDP Governors’ Forum at the end of its enlarged meeting on Tuesday in Abuja.

Mohammed said that arising from the consultative meeting of the various organs of the party, the PDP resolved that the NEC meeting originally slated for Oct. 24 has been rescheduled to Nov. 28.

He noted that the postponement was to ensure that the party goes into the Ondo gubernatorial elections coming up on Nov. 16 with unity and strength demanded to unseat All Progressive Congress (APC) government in the state.

The Governor reiterated the need for unity in the face of efforts by detractors to divide the party and called on all members to shun divisive utterances.

He urged members to avoid divisive utterances that could undermine ongoing efforts at strengthening the party to effectively play its role as the country’s main opposition, preparatory to taking over in 2027.

Members of PDP-GF, the Board of Trustees, NWC, National Assembly leadership of PDP Caucus, and Forum of Former Governors of the party attended the meeting.
