The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has officially reinstated Samuel Anyanwu as its National Secretary, reaffirming his position within the party’s National Working Committee (NWC).
The announcement was made on Wednesday by the party’s Acting National Chairman, Ambassador Iliya Damagum, during a press briefing attended by prominent party leaders including Bauchi State Governor Bala Mohammed and former Senate President Bukola Saraki.
Damagum acknowledged that the decision to reinstate Anyanwu was contentious but emphasised that it had received broad approval from key organs of the party and a majority of stakeholders.
He further disclosed the cancellation of the planned National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting, stating, “Instead of the NEC, we will convene an expanded caucus. At that meeting, we will chart the course toward a properly constituted NEC session.”
“Anyanwu resumes immediately as National Secretary,” Damagum confirmed. “It was a critical decision, particularly in light of INEC’s notice issue. Therefore, on June 30, we will proceed with an extended caucus meeting.”
