The Chairman of the governors elected on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party and 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 Thursday.
Present at the closed-door meeting are five serving PDP governors, including Seyi Makinde (Oyo), Bala Mohammed (Bauchi), 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).
DAILY POST gathered that the session is aimed at building consensus among party leaders ahead of the NEC gathering.
Thursday’s NEC meeting is expected to ratify critical decisions earlier taken 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.
