The Peoples Democratic Party Governors Forum, led by Bauchi State Governor Bala Mohammed, has scheduled an emergency meeting in Delta State to address escalating internal turmoil within Nigeria's main opposition party. The intervention follows a chaotic Board of Trustees session in Abuja that turned physical due to conflicting claims over the National Secretary position by Samuel Anyanwu and Sunday Ude-Okoye, both backed by differing appellate court orders. Amid persistent factional strife lingering from the 2023 elections, acting National Chairman Umar Damagum and Board of Trustees Chairman Adolphus Wabara reprimanded ambitious party leaders for fueling division, while assuring stakeholders that the critical National Executive Committee meeting will proceed in February to restore order, even as the ruling All Progressives Congress publicly mocked the opposition's internal dysfunction.
