Diaspora Digital Media (DDM) gathered that Turaki made the declaration following the submission of a petition at the Police Headquarters in Garki, targeting expelled officials of the party, including National Secretary Samuel Anyanwu.
Our correspondent notes that the petition accused Anyanwu and other party members of sabotaging PDP processes and undermining the party’s leadership and organizational cohesion.
Despite the petition, Turaki insisted that no obstacle would prevent the executive meeting from proceeding, emphasizing that the session is a key step in implementing the party’s new leadership direction.
He reiterated that the Wadata Plaza meeting marks the beginning of a renewed focus on discipline, unity, and strategic planning under his leadership.

The chairman emphasized that defending internal processes and maintaining order within the party are critical for strengthening PDP’s organizational structure and credibility.
Turaki noted that the NEC meeting would provide an opportunity for leaders to discuss internal reforms, address challenges, and reinforce cohesion among party officials at all levels.
Observers say the chairman’s statement signals a firm commitment to assert authority, enforce party rules, and prevent disruptions by dissenting members.
Party insiders indicate that the meeting will also focus on reviewing strategic priorities, coordinating state and national operations, and ensuring alignment among party organs nationwide.
The leadership highlighted the significance of the session for restoring confidence among members and re-establishing PDP as a disciplined and unified political force.
Analysts suggest that Turaki’s proactive stance demonstrates the party’s determination to safeguard internal democracy, promote transparency, and address grievances through established channels.
The NEC gathering is expected to include discussions on organizational restructuring, membership engagement, election preparedness, and the integration of party stakeholders into decision-making processes.
