The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has said the acting national chairman, Amb. Iliya Damagum and the acting national secretary, Arch. Setonji Koshoedo, signed the nomination form of the party’s candidate for the November 8, 2025, Anambra State Governorship election to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

The party’s national publicity secretary, Hon Debo Ologungaba, said this while dismissing a report that the nomination form was signed by Damagum and Senator Samuel Anyanwu as contained in a report.

The party spokesman said the report of Anyanwu being a signatory to the form was  false and scripted to mislead the public and cause confusion in the party.

“For the avoidance of doubt, the Nomination Form for the PDP candidate in the Anambra State governorship election was signed by the duly authorized signatories of the Party; the Acting National Chairman, Amb. Iliya Damagum and the Acting National Secretary, Arch. Setonji Koshoedo in a letter with reference number: PDP/DOM/GF.2/VOL.1J/25-065 dated Wednesday, May 07, 2025. (Document attached).

“It should be noted that in the light of the Supreme Court judgement affirming the supremacy of the Party over its Internal affairs, the NWC in a letter with reference number: PDP/DOM/GF.2/ VOL. IF/25-061, dated May 05, 2025 and signed by the Acting National Chairman, Amb. Iliya Damagum and the Acting National Secretary, Arch. Setonji Koshoedo. (Document attached), conveyed to INEC, the resolution taken at its 600th meeting wherein it directed the Deputy National Secretary to act as National Secretary in line with the provision of Section 36 (2) of the PDP Constitution (as amended in 2017).

“For clarity Section 36 (2) of the PDP Constitution empowers the Deputy National Secretary “to act as National Secretary whenever so directed”.

“It is also clear by the date and time stamp on the nomination page on INEC portal that the Commission concluded on the nomination process based on the documents duly co-signed by the Acting National Chairman, Amb. Iliya Damagum and the Acting National Secretary, Arch. Setonji Koshoedo.”

The party urged all PDP members, the media and the general public to disregard the said report as well as the fake letter being circulated in the social media.

 

 

“While reassuring on the credibility of our internal processes, the NWC urges all members of the PDP to remain steadfast and focused especially as our Party prepares for the National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting and the National Convention.”
