PDP BoT meets Wednesday in Abuja

The Board of Trustees of the Peoples Democratic Party is set to convene in Abuja on Wednesday, March 11, 2026, following a court ruling that nullified the party's 2025 national convention.

The Board of Trustees (BoT) of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) will hold a significant meeting in Abuja on March 11, 2026. This gathering comes in the wake of a legal decision by the Court of Appeal that upheld the invalidation of the PDP's National Convention, which took place in Ibadan on November 15 and 16, 2025. The court's ruling has created a turbulent political atmosphere for the party, necessitating a re-evaluation of its strategic direction and leadership structure.

In a notice circulated among members, signed by the BoT Chairman, Mao Ohuabunwa, all trustees are formally invited to attend the meeting at 2 pm. The venue is set for 1, Sabo Ago Street, LifeCamp, Abuja. This convening reflects an effort by the party’s leadership to address the ongoing internal challenges and to strategize for future engagements, particularly in the face of electoral pressures leading up to the election period.

Ohuabunwa emphasized that this BoT meeting is officially recognized by the party’s caretaker leadership, acknowledging the duality within the party as it navigates its leadership crisis. The repercussions of the court ruling could significantly impact the PDP's organizational integrity and its standing in upcoming political contests, prompting the urgency of this meeting. As the party looks ahead, the outcomes of this gathering will likely determine the PDP's next moves in a politically charged environment and its reconciliation efforts within the party’s ranks.
