PDP has dissolved all party structures in five Southern States.
NewsOnline Nigeria reports that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has taken a major decision at its national convention in Ibadan, dissolving all party structures in Imo, Abia, Enugu, Akwa Ibom, and Rivers states.
The announcement came after the host governor, Seyi Makinde, moved a motion to ratify and approve the executive committees elected through congresses conducted across the country between 2024 and 2025.

Makinde explained that congresses had been held nationwide to elect party officers at the ward, local government, state, and zonal levels, all in line with the Electoral Act 2022, the PDP constitution, and established party guidelines. These congresses, he said, were approved by both the National Executive Committee (NEC) and the National Working Committee (NWC).
However, Makinde declared that the convention had now resolved to dissolve all existing structures in the five affected states.
He stated:
“In the case of Imo, Abia, Enugu, Akwa Ibom, and Rivers, the Convention hereby dissolves all party structures at the ward, local government, and state levels. The Convention has authorized the publication of this decision to serve as official notice to the public.”
The motion was seconded by Daniel Obiechina Okechukwu, National Auditor and member of the NWC.
Details remain developing.
