The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has announced May 27th, 2025 as the date for its 99th National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting.

This development was communicated in a statement signed by the National Publicity Secretary, Debo Ologunagba, on Thursday.

The statement noted that “all constitutionally accredited NEC members are reminded to attend the meeting at the PDP National Secretariat.

“All members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and the general public may recall the 600th meeting of the National Working Committee (NWC) held on Tuesday, 29th April, 2025 wherein the NWC resolved to hold the 99th National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting on Tuesday, 27th May, 2025, and the Acting National Chairman, H.E. Amb. Iliya Damagum’s Media address on the same Tuesday, 29th April, 2025 on the summoning of NEC.”

“Distinguished members of NEC are hereby reminded of the scheduled 99th NEC meeting as earlier summoned,” the statement read.

SaharaReporters earlier reported that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) appointed former Senate President Dr. Bukola Saraki to head a high-level reconciliation committee to resolve internal rifts ahead of its National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting at the end of May.

The decision was reached during a closed-door meeting in the second week of May at the Abuja residence of Bala Mohammed, Chairman of the PDP Governors’ Forum and Governor of Bauchi State.

Key party stakeholders attended the meeting, including the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, who left without addressing the press.

Speaking to journalists after the meeting, Governor Mohammed had said the reconciliation committee was formed to engage aggrieved members and party leaders in order to stabilise the party’s ranks ahead of the NEC meeting and the national convention later this year.

“We invited former governors and party elders to tap into their wealth of experience. We believe their input will help calm nerves and reposition the party,” Mohammed stated.

The PDP has been grappling with a wave of defections and internal wrangling since the 2023 general elections.

The situation recently escalated with the defection of Delta State Governor Sheriff Oborevwori, former Governor Ifeanyi Okowa, and several top Delta officials to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
