The National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Tanimu Turaki, has announced the postponement of the party’s National Working Committee (NWC) meeting following chaos at the national secretariat in the Wuse area of Abuja.

Turaki said the meeting was postponed over the crisis at the party’s headquarters in Abuja on Tuesday.

“Due to some incidents caused by those who are the enemies of progress, the enemies of democracy, we have decided to postpone this meeting till tomorrow,” he stated.

Turaki also commended the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Commissioner of Police for providing security that enabled the leadership access the secretariat.

He disclosed that he had briefed the police commissioner about the planned NWC meeting and informed him of the announcement of the NEC and BoT meetings by persons no longer recognised as PDP members.

Turaki thanked party stakeholders for their support, saying the PDP remains committed to unity and stability.
