The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) National Working Caretaker Committee faction backed by the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike has dissolved State Working Committees in 14 states.
The faction announced this in a communiqué issued at the end of a meeting on Thursday in Abuja, read by acting Publicity Secretary, Haruna Jungun.
The affected states include Borno, Bauchi, Oyo, Zamfara, Yobe, Ekiti, Bayelsa, Enugu, Ebonyi, Anambra, Delta, Taraba, Kano and Lagos.
Jungun said the committee also assigned portfolios to members to strengthen administration and coordination of party activities nationwide.
“The National Caretaker Committee further ratified the dissolution of some state executives while confirming caretaker committees in those states,” he stated.
He listed appointments, including Prof. Adenike Ogunse as Women Leader, Deji Doherty as Deputy National Secretary, and Sen. Olaka Ogunwu as Treasurer.
Others named were Jungun Mohammed as Publicity Secretary and Dr Ibrahim Bala-Aboki as National Youth Leader.
Jungun said a timetable for state congresses was approved, beginning January 9, 2026, to be followed by a national convention.
The spokesman rejected claims that the Taminu Turaki-led executive had been recognised by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
“There is only one genuine and legitimate PDP, headed by Abdulrahmah Mohammed,” he declared.
He challenged Turaki to produce the code used to upload his executives on INEC’s portal.
Earlier, faction’s acting National Chairman Abdulrahmah Mohammed said the meeting aimed to keep the party on a lawful and stable path.
“We have only one PDP under my leadership, aligned with the party constitution and the laws of the Federal Republic of Nigeria,” Mohammed said.
