The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has postponed its 103rd National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting earlier scheduled for Wednesday, October 15, 2025.
The announcement was made on Monday by the party’s National Publicity Secretary, Debo Ologunagba, in a statement issued in Abuja.
He said the decision followed new developments within the party and was approved by the National Working Committee (NWC) during its emergency session.
Ologunagba explained that the postponement was made under Section 29 (2)(b) of the PDP Constitution (as amended in 2017), which empowers the NWC to act in such situations.
He added that the new date for the NEC meeting would be communicated to all members in due course.
“The National Working Committee, in the exercise of its powers pursuant to Section 29 (2)(b) of the PDP Constitution, approved the postponement of the 103rd NEC meeting,” Ologunagba said.
“All NEC members should please note the postponement and be guided accordingly.”
The decision comes amid ongoing internal consultations within the PDP as the party continues to address leadership issues and strategic plans for the coming political season.
Party sources said the postponement was necessary to allow the leadership more time to harmonize key decisions before convening the meeting.
Analysts believe the delay may also be linked to ongoing discussions about the party’s national structure, state congresses, and preparations for the 2027 general elections.
However, the party leadership has not provided further details on the specific “recent developments” prompting the postponement.
Meanwhile, the PDP leadership urged all members to remain calm and united, assuring that the new meeting date will be announced soon.
The party emphasized its commitment to internal democracy, transparency, and unity as it navigates current challenges.
The NEC meeting, when held, is expected to deliberate on crucial issues affecting the party, including its reconciliation efforts, upcoming elections, and strategic reorganization across states.
