Members and delegates of the leading opposition party Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) have converged at Eagles Square, Abuja to hold their national convention and elect new officials.
The convention which is scheduled for today and tomorrow is a crucial part of the party’s preparation for the 2023 elections in the country.
National party officials, governors, ex-governors, and other bigwigs of the party are currently at Eagle’s Square in preparation.
According to our political correspondent, Seun Okinbaloye, who is at the venue of the convention most of the positions up for grabs will be filled via consensus.
However, some three positions are still under contestation.
Chairman of the organising committee of the convention, Governor Ahmadu Fintiri had earlier on Friday said efforts are on to reconcile most of the contestants.
“At the moment we are making efforts to reconcile most of our contestants so that we can scrutinise them and have a better convention
“We are expecting 3600 delegates tomorrow (today). Most of the positions, as of today, except for three will not be contested. We are still talking with those contesting,” Fintiri said on Friday.
