The National Working Committee (NWC) of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has approved April 12 for the party’s earlier postponed South-South zonal congress.
The party’s national publicity secretary, Debo Ologunagba, stated this in a statement issued on Sunday in Abuja.
Mr Ologunagba said that NWC also approved the shifting of the South-West and North-Central zonal congresses from the earlier scheduled March 22 to April 12.
He said that the zonal congresses would hold simultaneously in Port Harcourt, for South-South zone; Ibadan, for South-West zone and Jos, for North-Central zone.
The PDP spokesman said that executive officers and national ex-officio members for the respective zonal chapters would be elected at the congresses, in line with the party’s constitution and guidelines.
He urged all aspirants, PDP leaders, stakeholders and members in the respective zones, INEC, security agencies and the media to note the dates for the zonal congresses and be guided accordingly.
