The meeting was held to review the party’s state, with particular reference to the vacant position of national chairman following the exit of Senator Iyorchia Ayu, who hails from the zone.

Some stakeholders at the meeting yesterday were Plateau State Governor Caleb Muftwang, Senator David A.B. Mark, Senator Bukola Saraki, Senator Abba Moro, Senator Gabriel Suswam, Jonah Jang, Abdulfatai Ahmed, Babangida Aliyu, Idris Wada.

The meeting was convened barely two weeks after the PDP Board of Trustees (BoT) told North Central leaders to produce Ayu’s replacement ahead of the party’s National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting scheduled for February 2025.

It will be recalled that there have been agitations for the acting national chairman of PDP, Amb Illiya Damagum, to vacate office and revert to his deputy national chairman position for a party member from the North Central to serve as substantive national chairman as designed by the party.
