- Recognises Sir Ndubisi Nwobu as Anambra State PDD chairman
The People’s Democratic Party (PDP) National Working Committee (NWC) has said decisions on zoning of elective positions at state level falls within the purview of state chapter of the party.
This was made known by the National Publicity Secretary of PDP, Kola Ologbondiyan at a press conference in Abuja on Sunday, while discussing the stand of the party on zoning of the Anambra governorship position ahead of the 2021 governorship election in the state.
The party said conflicting reports in the media regarding its position on zoning of the Anambra State governorship position made it necessary that the NWC clarifies its stand on the issue.
Ologbondiyan said, “For the avoidance of doubts, the NWC wishes to state that any decision on zoning of elective offices at the state level remains the exclusive preserve of the state chapter as such falls under its regulatory purview and administrative prerogative as prescribed by the Constitution of the PDP.
“The NWC notes that Section 24(2) of the PDP Constitution is clear on the functions of the state chapters in party administration, including identifying and resolving political, social and economic issues of concern in states.”
Ologbondiyan also stated that the Ndubisi Nwobu led faction of the PDP remains the legitimate structure of the party in Anambra State.
The PDP tasked all stakeholders in Anambra to continue to work harmoniously for the overall success of the party in the state.
