The Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Governors’ Forum, the Governor of Bauchi State, Bala Mohammed, on Wednesday hosted a strategic caucus meeting at the Bauchi State Governor’s Lodge in Abuja.
The meeting was ahead of the crucial National Executive Committee (NEC), meeting of the party scheduled for today, Thursday.
Present at the closed-door meeting were five serving PDP governors, including Bala Mohammed (Bauchi), Seyi Makinde (Oyo), Caleb Mutfwang (Plateau), Ahmadu Fintiri (Adamawa), and Dauda Lawal (Zamfara).
Others were key national figures of the party, including the PDP Acting National Chairman, Umar Damagun; National Secretary, Senator Samuel Anyanwu; and several members of the party’s Board of Trustees (BoT).
The session was aimed at building consensus among party leaders ahead of the NEC meeting.
Thursday’s NEC meeting is expected to ratify critical decisions earlier adopted by the National Working Committee (NWC), including preparations and direction for the forthcoming national elective convention.
The caucus meeting is seen as part of ongoing efforts to foster unity within the party and strengthen its leadership structure ahead of the 2027 general elections.
