PDP NWC seeks political solution to Rivers Caretaker Committee list crisis

The National Working Committee, NWC, of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has resolved to find a political solution to the controversy that erupted as a result of the Rivers State Caretaker Committee list.

A statement signed by the National Publicity Secretary, Debo Ologunagba, said the decision was taken at an emergency meeting on Tuesday, where the issue of the Caretaker Committee was reviewed.

The statement read, “The National Working Committee (NWC) at its emergency meeting today, Tuesday, April 23, 2024 reviewed the issue of the Caretaker Committee of River State.

“After an extensive deliberation the NWC noted the existence of an Ex-Parte Order issued by the Federal High Court, Abuja restraining the NWC from further action with respect to the status of the Rivers State Caretaker Committee List as published.

“However, while the Rivers State Caretaker Committee List as published stands in compliance with the Order of the Court, the NWC notes the concerted intervention and efforts of various Organs of the Party, particularly the PDP Governors’ Forum to finding a political solution to the issue of the River State Caretaker Committee.

“The NWC therefore resolved to, in conjunction with the PDP Governors’ Forum, intensify action in the continuing consultation to resolving the issues of the Rivers State PDP Chapter amicably.”
