PDP Governors Convene in Jos to Chart a Course for the Party’s Leadership
A gathering of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governors has arrived in Jos, the capital of Plateau State, ahead of a crucial meeting aimed at resolving the party’s leadership crisis.
The governors, who began arriving in Jos on Friday, will hold their meeting on Saturday to discuss the party’s leadership positions, including the choice of a permanent National Chairman.
The much-anticipated meeting is expected to lay the groundwork for the party’s national convention, where a substantive National Chairman will be elected to succeed the current acting chairman, Umar Damagum.
The PDP’s leadership crisis has been a source of tension within the party, with power play and backroom deals dominating the scene. The governors’ meeting is seen as a vital step towards resolving these issues and presenting a united front for the party’s future.
As the party looks to reposition itself ahead of the 2027 general elections, the Jos meeting assumes great importance. A party insider revealed that the outcome of the meeting could have far-reaching implications for the party’s fortunes, with the potential to determine its trajectory in the coming years.
