    Party Crisis: Saraki Leads PDP Delegation To Enugu, Meets Gov Mbah

    By David AkonucheMay 23, 2025

    IN a bid to address the crisis rocking the Peoples Democratic Party, (PDP), the party’s Special Reconciliation Committee chaired by a former President of the Senate, Bukola Saraki, Friday, met with the Governor of Enugu State and leader of the party in the South East region, Peter Mbah.

    Other members of the committee present at the meeting, which was held behind closed doors at the Government House, Enugu, were a former governor of Bayelsa State, Senator Seriake Dickson, and a former governor of Gombe State, Ibrahim Dankwambo.

    The leaders of the PDP in the zone had in a communiqué issued after the South-East PDP Zonal Executive Council meeting a fortnight ago announced the re-nomination of former PDP National Youth Leader, Sunday Udeh-Okoye, to serve out the remaining tenure of the National Secretary, threatening possible exodus should their decision not be respected.

    “In the event that our position is not promptly implemented by the Party, the South East PDP, as a family, will be compelled to reconsider our relationship with the PDP going forward,” the communique read.

    But addressing journalists after the closed-door meeting with Mbah, Saraki said, “We are members of the PDP Reconciliation and Strategy Committee that was set up recently by the PDP Governors’ Forum to work towards ensuring that our upcoming National Executive Council meeting and also likely convention is rancor-free and and works smoothly.

    “In line with that, we are here in Enugu State to consult with one of our leaders, Governor Peter Mbah, who is the leader of South East PDP.

    “This is the first state we are coming to because we appreciate the importance of the South East in our PDP family. As you all know, the South East has played a key role as the bedrock of the popularity and the strength of our party.

    “In recognition of that, we are here to consult with him and first to commend him on the leadership role he has been playing in the party. More importantly also, to commend what he is doing in Enugu State, which is a reflection for Nigerians to see what happens when you have a PDP government.”

    Former Senate President Bukola Saraki leads a PDP delegation to Enugu State Governor, Peter Mbah, in Enugu on May 23, 2025.
    “In doing that, we discussed how we will ensure that we carry out the assignment given to us and go ahead to have our NEC and our convention. We will have one that is rancor-free and smooth, peaceful and lays the foundation for the PDP that we all are wishing for.

    “We have had a very good discussion. Frankly, we have had a very, very useful discussion. We are going away with some of the suggestions that we have here and hopefully work on that.

    “With this, we can say here in Enugu we laid the foundation for a greater new PDP that is coming.

    “What we have also seen today is that there is nothing insurmountable in the challenge ahead and the spirit, the commitment of all of us, especially our leaders, is very very inspiring,” he stated.
