Court Nullifies PDP National Convention, Recognises Wike-Backed Caretaker Committee

A Federal High Court in Ibadan, Oyo State, has nullified the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) National Convention held on November 15, 2025, in a ruling seen as favouring the camp loyal to FCT Minister Nyesom Wike.

The court barred Turaki and other officials elected at the convention from parading themselves as national officers of the party.

It further ruled that the Caretaker Committee led by Abdulrahman, with Senator Samuel Anyanwu as secretary, remains the only recognised National Working Committee (NWC) of the PDP pending the conduct of a valid national convention.
