Abuja, Nigeria
The national working committee (NWC) of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has reinstated Samuel Anyanwu as the national secretary of the party.
Speaking at a press conference on Wednesday, Umar Damagum, acting national chairman of the PDP, said Anyanwu will resume as national secretary.
Damagum said the decision was difficult, but the party stakeholders have widely accepted it.
The acting chairman, flanked by the chairman of the PDP Governors’ Forum and Bauchi State Governor Bala Mohammed, former Senate President Bukola Saraki, and other party stakeholders, announced that the party has resolved to reintegrate Anyanwu into the national working committee (NWC).
“Senator Samuel Anyanwu has been reinstated in the NWC. It was a difficult decision, and it was accepted by many members of the party, led by the organs of the party”, he said.
“We will have an expanded Caucus. At the next Caucus, we will make a decision leading to a proper NEC.
“Anyanwu is resuming as the National Secretary, that is why I said it was a critical decision. Like INEC said, they don’t have our notice, so what we will have on June 30th is an expanded Caucus.”
