Onyebuchi Ezigbo in Abuja
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) under the leadership of Senator Ahmed Makarfi has scheduled to hold an ‘expanded caucus’ meeting of the party thursday.
The meeting, which is to hold in the afternoon, is expected to have in attendance the party’s bigwigs including, governors of the PDP, National Assembly caucus, members of the Board of Trustees (BoT), National Vice Chairmen, state chairmen and other NEC members.
A statement signed by the party’s spokesman, Dayo Adeyeye, said those to attend the decisive meeting would also include former governors, former ministers and invited elders and leaders of the party.
THISDAY had reported last Sunday that the meeting would be used to consider aspects of the recommendations of a special committee on strategy and inter party affairs set up late last year.
Although the report of committee is yet to be officially submitted to the party leadership, THISDAY gathered from reliable sources that it contains, among other recommendations, issues relating to reforms in the party, proposals for constitutional amendment and terms/forms of re-alignment in the event of unfavorable judicial pronouncement on its leadership crisis.
