Our National Convention Will Hold As Scheduled, PDP Insists Despite Court Order

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has declared that it will proceed with its National Convention as planned, scheduled to take place on November 15 in Ibadan, the capital of Oyo State.

National Publicity Secretary of the PDP, Hon. Debo Ologungba, who is also the Secretary of Publicity and Communication Sub-Committee of the convention, disclosed this in a statement.

“The National Working Committee (NWC) and the 2025 National Convention Organising Committee (NCOC) of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) informs all party members and the general public that the 2025 National Convention of the PDP has not been postponed but will go on as scheduled on Saturday, 15th to Sunday, 16th November, 2025 in Ibadan, the Oyo State capital.

“The NWC and the NCOC urge Party members and Nigerians in general to disregard misleading claims being peddled to the contrary by some individuals who, it has been revealed, are recruited by the All Progressives Congress (APC) in its failed attempt to stop the PDP National Convention.

“We are aware of the plots by the APC to destabilise the opposition and impose a one-party state in the country; a design that will be lawfully resisted,” he said.

Ologunagba said the NCOC and the party will continue to work assiduously round the clock to ensure a successful National Convention as scheduled.

“While thanking Nigerians for their overwhelming support for our Party, the NCOC welcomes all delegates, Party leaders, officials and all supporters of the PDP who have already started arriving in Ibadan for the National Convention,” the PDP added.
