A new splinter group of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) on Wednesday opened a new secretariat for itself in the Asokoro District of Abuja.
The slogan of this fresh splinter group is ‘Fresh PDP, PDP First.’
Recall we reported that a crisis was brewing in the party after one of the chairman aspirants Taoheed Ajibode sue the party to court seeking the nulification of the election of Prince Uche Secondus as the party’s national chairman.
The faction was reportedly formed by a group of five men that includes Prince Obi Nwosu, Alhaji Hassan Adamu, Chief Olusola Akindele, Chief Godwin Duru and Franklyne Edede.
The men are believed to be loyalists of one of the chairmanship aspirants in the party national convention held on December 9.
Nwosu, who is the leader of the group, told journalists that the process leading to the emergence of the Uche Secondus-led National Working Committee (NWC) was fraught with illegality and abuse of electoral process. He added that members of NWC of his group would be announced in January next year.
