JUST IN: Makinde, Saraki, Others in Closed Door Meeting after FCTA Seizes PDP HQ [PICS]

Leaders of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), including Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde, Acting National Chairman Umar Damagum, and former Senate President Bukola Saraki, are currently holding a closed-door meeting of the party’s National Executive Committee (NEC) at the Bauchi State Governor’s Lodge in Asokoro, Abuja.

The meeting, which is part of the PDP’s National Caucus session, comes just hours after officials of the Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA) sealed off the party’s national secretariat over unpaid ground rents.

Meanwhile, the PDP Board of Trustees (BoT) meeting, earlier scheduled to hold at the sealed secretariat, was relocated to Legacy House, the party’s presidential campaign office located in the Maitama District of the Federal Capital Territory.

The sealing of the PDP headquarters follows tension between the party and FCT Minister Nyesom Wike. Wike, a former PDP governor, had declared on Sunday that he would “fight for justice” within the party.

Prior to the commencement of the meeting, journalists were excused to allow for a private session.
