The National Working Committee of the Peoples Democratic Party {PDP} has voided the party’s congress held in Ebonyi state on Wednesday, May 4th, 2022 over irregularities.
The party in a press statement published on their social media platform and credited to Hon. Debo Ologunagba, National Publicity Secretary fixed tomorrow, May 5th, 2022 for a repeat.
The press release reads “PDP to Hold Ebonyi 3-man Ad-Hoc Delegate Congress Thursday, May 5, 2022″”
The attention of the National Working Committee (NWC) of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has been drawn to reports of a purported conduct of 3-man Ad-Hoc Delegate Congress in Ebonyi State today, Wednesday, May 4, 2022″.
“For the avoidance of doubt, the said 3-man Ad-Hoc Delegate Congress in Ebonyi State on Wednesday, May 4, 2022 is by law, null and void and as such unrecognized.
“This is because such Congresses are by law, subject to be monitored by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), which in this case, was not available to monitor the exercise.
“Based on the unavailability of INEC to monitor the exercise today, Wednesday, May 4, 2022, the NWC rescheduled the conduct of the 3-man Ad-Hoc Delegates Congress in Ebonyi State for Thursday, May 5, 2022”.
“All members of our Party in Ebonyi State should therefore discountenance any exercise conducted on Wednesday May 4, 2022 as the PDP 3-man Ad-Hoc Delegates Congress in Ebonyi State will duly hold on Thursday, May 5 2022”.
