PDP Dissolves Wike-led Convention Committee by StepTwo(op): 9:26pm On Aug 29, 2016
PDP Makes Big Concessions To Modu Sheriff, Dissolves Wike-Led Convention Committee

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), desperate for peace among its members, has conceded to some of the demands made by its factional National Chairman, Sen. Ali Modu Sheriff.

Rising from a meeting in Abuja on Monday, the Board of Trustees (BoT) of the party said that the next national convention of the party would now hold in Abuja, and dissolved the national convention committee under the leadership of the Governor of Rivers State, Mr. Nyesom Wike.

Both conditions are part of the peace accord reached with the Ali Modu Sheriff faction in the quest to end the crisis ravaging the PDP.

The BoT meeting was attended by a sizeable number of members and was presided over by its Chairman, Senator Walid Jibrin. It was held at the Musa Yar’Adua Centre.

It mandated its Reconciliation Committee to continue with all “good efforts” aimed at reconciling all of the party’s aggrieved members.

I hope for PDP's sake they make governors less powerful. The present and past governors put pdp in the mess they are now.

Anyways, both factions have moved grounds. Markarfi retains his position. This in essence means all primaries.conducted under Sherrif's leadership are null and void. Zoning formula also stands
Re: PDP Dissolves Wike-led Convention Committee by jmichlins(m): 10:27pm On Aug 29, 2016
The South misses again on where it matters most as a result of the political mis-calculation and arrogance of just two people parading themselves as governors. What pains me most is that they are 'Heroes' of many youths who should be fighting for the soul of the party
Re: PDP Dissolves Wike-led Convention Committee by Nobody: 6:20am On Aug 30, 2016
Thank God the impasse is gradually being resolved. The concessions made to Sheriff should mollify him and make him amenable to the recommendations of the Board of Trustees. I only pray no one throws a spanner in the works the BoT is doing.

I know a lot of people who'd be greatly burt by this news- but hell, I couldn't care less about their misery. They planned it, hatched it, so they should damn live with it.

Lmao! All those destroying Nigeria will never know peace.

This nonsense party divided itself into 2 factions just to cause Nigeria troubles. One faction founded and funded BH and the other recruited Avengers just to make sure they don't loose their grip on this Nation.

Their wahala has just started. In that convention, they will box and embarrassed eachother and we will laugh them to scorn.

They will never be an option in this Great Country.

The undisputed power of the Northern politicians. PDP was created by the Northerners, until some Idiots down in the South understand this simple fact. PDP can't stand without the North. Not only PDP, even APC can't stand without the North. I hope my myopic thinking APGA/ IPOB will take note
