The crisis rocking the Peoples Democratic Party took another fiery turn on Tuesday as the factional National Executive Committee loyal to the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, ratified the expulsion of Governors Seyi Makinde of Oyo State, Bala Mohammed of Bauchi State, and Dauda Lawal of Zamfara State.

The NEC also expelled former Chairman of the Board of Trustees, Senator Adolphus Wabara; former National Vice Chairman of the party, Bode George, and the recently elected party National Chairman, Kabiru Turaki, SAN.

The move comes just days after the controversial PDP national convention held in Ibadan, the Oyo State capital, last Saturday, which saw Wike and his loyalists expelled from the party.

The development triggered Tuesday’s heated confrontation between both camps at the party’s national secretariat in Wadata Plaza, Abuja, where the two factions had scheduled parallel NEC and Board of Trustees meetings.

The factional NEC, at its meeting held at the national secretariat in Abuja on Tuesday, also dissolved the state executive councils in Oyo, Bauchi, Zamfara, Yobe, Lagos, and Ekiti States, directing the constitution of caretaker committees and the conduct of fresh congresses.

A communiqué from the meeting, read by National Secretary Senator Sam Anyanwu, stated, “NEC received the report of the Acting National Chairman, Hon. Abdulrahman Mohammed, detailing breaches of Articles 58(1) and 59(1), including anti-party activities, disobedience to court orders, and conduct bringing the party into disrepute.

“NEC approved the commencement of disciplinary procedures against the following: Adolphus Wabara, Olabode George, Ben N. Obi, Kabiru Tanimu Turaki, SAN, Bala Mohammed, Oluseyi Makinde, Dauda Lawal, Taofiq Arapaja, Setonji Koshoedo, Okechukwu Obiechina Daniel, Woyengikuro Daniel, Mohammed Kadade Suleiman, Emmanuel Ogidi, Sumaila Adamu Burga, Umar Sani, Udom Emmanuel, and Emmanuel Enorden.”

APGA IS NATIONAL, NOT IGBO: ADEDOYIN COUNTERS CRITICS, HAILS ADELEKE’S LEADERSHIP
The Caretaker Chairman of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) in Osun State, and the Chairmanship Candidate for Ilesa West Local Government in the last February Local Government Election conducted under the administration of Governor Ademola Adeleke, Hon. Wole Adedoyin, has debunked the recurring claim that APGA is an “Igbo party.” He described the assertion as false, misleading, and a deliberate attempt to misrepresent the national identity and political strength of the party.
Hon. Adedoyin noted that APGA, like the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and the All Progressives Congress (APC), is a fully registered national political party with constitutional presence across the federation. He explained that while the party’s visibility is strongest in the South East and parts of the South South, APGA has established solid structures across all geopolitical zones. “APGA has won elections in Oyo State in the Southwest, as well as in Taraba, Benue, and Nasarawa States in the North in the past. The party’s popularity in Anambra and the wider South East does not diminish its national identity,” he said.
Speaking further, the Osun APGA Chairman addressed public reactions surrounding speculations that Governor Ademola Adeleke might consider APGA as a platform for his re-election bid. He stressed that while such speculations are widespread, the only comment worth responding to is the false narrative that APGA is regionally owned. “APGA is not an ethnic party. It is a national platform open to all Nigerians irrespective of tribe, faith, or location,” he stated.
Adedoyin pointed out that Nigeria’s political history shows that regional dominance does not equate to ethnic ownership. He cited President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s former Action Congress (AC) and later Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN), which were once dominant in the Southwest but never labelled as Yoruba parties. “The AC and ACN even fielded prominent Igbo and South South candidates for elective positions. That is how national parties operate. APGA is no different,” he affirmed.
Responding to insinuations of internal crisis, Adedoyin maintained that APGA remains stable, united, and properly structured. He emphasized that the party has no faction at the national level and is under the competent leadership of its duly recognized National Chairman, Chief Barr. Sylvester Ezeokenwa. “There is no legal crisis in APGA. All recent elections, including the by-elections conducted by INEC in Anambra State, were won decisively by APGA. The party is growing stronger under the leadership of His Excellency Governor Charles Chukwuma Soludo and Chairman Ezeokenwa,” he stated.
Hon. Adedoyin also highlighted APGA as the most viable political platform for any leader seeking a credible, people-oriented mandate. He expressed confidence that the party possesses the national capacity, internal unity, and grassroots structures required to support any re-election aspiration, should Governor Adeleke choose to run on its platform.
Finally, Adedoyin described Governor Ademola Adeleke as a divine blessing to Osun State, applauding his developmental strides across infrastructure, education, workers’ welfare, and social interventions. “Governor Adeleke has transformed Osun within a short period. His achievements speak for him, and we in APGA commend his exceptional service delivery. He remains a blessing to the people of Osun State,” he concluded.

Governor may move to the Accord party or the APGA to contest

By Shina Abubakar Osogbo

The National Deputy Vice Chairman, Southwest, of the People’s Democratic Party, PDP, Mr Kamorudeen Ajisafe has disclosed that Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke, is faced with the dilemma of a political platform to contest for the 2026 governorship poll in the State.

Speaking on a private radio programme tagged ‘Frank Talk’, which was monitored on Monday by Vanguard, the party chieftain disclosed that the present crisis in the party would not allow it present a candidate for next year poll.

He said the party suffered similar faith in Ekiti State due to Senator Samuel Anyanwu rebellion against the party, hence, the need for Governor Adeleke to find a platform to exercise his right to retain power.

His words, “Let me tell you that if anything happens in Osun, it has to do with looking for a platform to contest, I am telling you. Where is the platform to contest now? If you are a very good party man will you be happy loosing someone like Taraba State Governor? Osun state, like you rightly said he is planning, I dont know about planning, I am sensitive for the need for a political platform to contest.

“The problem we have in Osun is quite different from what we have in Taraba. Election in Taraba and some other states is 2027, our own in Osun is 2026, the primary for any political party trying to present a candidate for the 2026 gubernatorial election is December 15. That is the position of INEC, what do we do, how are we going to manage that? After December 15, INEC by the constitution, will not recognise any emergence of candidate from any political primary again.

“If you are a consultant what would you advice, will you advise that I stay in a party, where I would not be able to exercise my right of returning to office, just advice me what you want Adeleke to do now, he has not told the world but ask.

“It is absolutely known to the whole world that there is no way that the PDP would be able to nominate a candidate for the 2026 governorship election. If you block your road or gate for me to enter and the occupant of another platform magnanimously allows me to pass freely, would I be crying that you lock your gate? What do you expect somebody like Adeleke should do, I am talking frankly on the radio that people can hear me, that is the fight we have with Wike and Anyawu”.

However, feelers in the state showed that the governor would soon move to either Accord Party or APGA to contest for the August 8 election

Many party sources confided in Vanguard that the Governor have reached out to chieftain of accord on modalities for the governor to move to the party, while others said the Accord Party arrangement has not been concluded as the governor does not want to take chances with opportunities to pick ticket where viably available.

BREAKING: PDP Leadership Uncovers Alleged Plot by Gov. Seyi Makinde Others to Disrupt Emergency BoT/NEC Meetings Tomorrow


The national leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) under the leadership of the Acting National Chairman, Alhaji Abdulrahman Mohammed has raised an alarm over what it describes as a carefully orchestrated plot by Oyo State Governor, Engr. Seyi Makinde, Mr. Adeyemi Moyegun, and others to violently disrupt the party’s emergency Board of Trustees (BoT) and National Executive Committee (NEC) meetings scheduled to hold tomorrow, Tuesday, November 18, 2025, at the PDP National Secretariat, Wadata Plaza, Abuja.

In a statement issued this evening by the Party’s leadership and made available to the press, the party disclosed that credible intelligence reports available to the leadership indicate that Governor Seyi Makinde has allegedly sponsored and mobilized political thugs and miscreants with the sole aim of causing chaos, destroying property, and preventing the legitimate organs of the party from convening.

“The PDP has been made aware of desperate plans by certain individuals, including Governor Seyi Makinde, one Adeyemi Moyegun and others to import hired thugs into Abuja to attack our party’s national headquarters and disrupt tomorrow’s crucial BoT and NEC emergency meetings,” the statement read in part.

The party warned that any attempt to breach the peace at Wadata Plaza or interfere with the lawful activities of the PDP will be met with the full wrath of the law.

“Security and law enforcement agencies have been placed on red alert. Any person or group found perpetrating violence or attempting to disrupt the scheduled meetings will face severe consequences under the law. The PDP will not tolerate acts of hooliganism or intimidation from any quarter,” the statement emphasized.

The emergency BoT and NEC meetings are expected to deliberate on critical national and party issues, including the ongoing leadership crisis and preparations for future elections.

As at the time of filing this report, neither Governor Seyi Makinde nor his media team has responded to the allegations.

More details to follow as the situation develops.

Josepholome:
Former Legislators of Kanke Local government of Plateau State under the auspices of the National Forum of Former Legislators, NFFL,at the weekend endorsed incumbent President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for a second term in office.

The group of Legislators who were members of the Senate,House of Representatives, House of Assembly and councillors came out in their large numbers to support the President's re-election bid.

The endorsement was adopted during the inauguration of the Kanke LGA Chapter of the NFFL which was performed by its National Coordinator, Rt Hon Nnanna Ralph Igbokwe.

Inaugurating the local chapter of the forum, the National Coordinator appreciates the prevailing unity among Former Legislators which has enabled the Forum to be visible at the federal level and urged Former Legislators at all levels to unite politically to sustain their relevance in politics.

He commended Former Speaker of the House of Representatives, Femi Gbajabiamila, the President's Chief of staff for his vision in convening such a strategic reunion of veteran parliamentarians, saying as experienced law makers, they have alot to contribute to the nation’s growing democracy. He said party differences should not limit our unity and that the goal of the forum is not just to ensure unity among Former lawmakers, but to serve as institutional memory and custodians of knowledge to serving Legislators and governments at all levels.

According to Igbokwe, two time former member of the House of Representatives from Imo State, the level of cooperation among former lawmakers across the country is exceptionally encouraging and that alot has been achieved within the shortest period of its existence which began about 5 months ago with a southern summit in Abeokuta some weeks ago.

The northern version of the NFFl summit is billed for 29th November in Abuja.

Igbokwe congratulated Kanke LGA and Plateau state for having the National Chairman of the All Progressive Congress, APC, Prof Nentawe Goshwe Yilwatda, saying its a good omen for political development.

Earlier in his welcoming speech, the Plateau state Coordinator of the NFFL, Dr Golu Timothy appreciates the vision of the convener, Rt Hon Gbajabiamila,saying the forum has restored lost relationships and opened new opportunities among the former legislators by the frequent and increasing contacts among themselves.

He said the forum has been able to push for amendments of some laws which affects the interest and welfare of the former legislators at the National Assembly and commended the federal lawmakers for their support.

For example, former state and federal lawmakers will now be automatic delegates at their party's national conventions if passed into law, a political situation that was not supported by all the political parties.

In his submission,the Majority Leader of the state House of Assembly and member representing Kanke in the state legislature, Hon Joseph Gokum commended the former legislators for laying such a foundation for the continous engagement and interaction among veterans and expressed optimism that with such unity, political stability and development is guaranteed.

Hon Gokum who also represented the Speaker, Rt Hon Naanlong Daniel Gapyil, added that with President Tinubu,Vice President Shettima and other key officials of the federal government being former legislators, the sky remains the limit for our success.

In his goodwill message, second Republic Majority Leader of the House of Representatives, Rt Hon Akawu Dahiru commended the resolve of the fmr Legislators to unite and pursue common interest.

He said, the forum has received the blessings of the president because he himself is a member and therefore will be glad to assist his colleagues grow politically.

Akawu commended the Kanke veteran parliamentarians for supporting President Tinubu and Prof Nentawe in their respective offices and orayed for their successes.Hon Amos Gombi, 6th House of Assembly member of the Plateau State House of Assembly moved the motion for the endorsement of the president.

Other speakers who spoke include, Hon Zachariak Goshang, 4th Republic state lawmakers who is the kanke LGA chair.an of the state Legislators forum and former council legislative leader,Hon Dudung Kaye. They all appreciate the convener of the forum and all former lawmakers at all levels for their cooperation and support for the forum. All the former Legislators expressed appreciation to Mr President for finding Kanke worthy of producing the National Chairman of a ruling party out of the 774 LGAs.

They pledged to reciprocate this kind gesture by ensuring their son Prof Yitwada succeeds and assure of landslide victory for Mr President in Kanke LGA in the 2027 general elections.

They have lost the plot.
They went to Omotosho to say PDP didn't give 21 days notice of meeting. Now they announced theirs 24 hours before.

Will they submit it to INEC? I also understand they are going to the Federal High Court today to get an ex-parte to compel INEC to affirm recognition of their meeting.

They intend to expel Makinde, Bala Mohammed, Bode George, Wabara and those they feel were the arrowheads at Ibadan. It's all too late, my dearies.

They didn't see the expulsion coming, I didn't either

The entire convention is a joke I swear. Makinde should have respectfully agree to postpone the convention instead of ridiculing himself in this manner. Three PDP governors failed to attend the convention and two of the governors that attended have publicly issued statements dissociating themselves from decisions reached at the convention. What can be more embarrassing?

With the way things are going, only Makinde, Bala Mohammed and Fergie001 go remain for that party after this miserable convention
