In a statement issued by the Hon . Debo Ologunagba, the party’s National Publicity Secretary on Friday, the party also warned members endorsing President Bola Tinubu for a second term in office to desist or face severe action.
The party noted that the anti party activities by some members have impacted negatively leading to heavy membership hemorrhage and diminished electoral fortunes.
It said in the light of the foregoing,it was necessary to reprimand members to desist forthwith “or face stiffer sanctions”
The statement read:
The National Working Committee (NWC) of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has reviewed the anti-party activities of certain members of the Party particularly those endorsing President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for re-election in 2027.
Of serious concern is the persistent public media outbursts against our Party by some prominent members whose actions and utterances including their public declaration of support and willingness to work for the victory of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the 2027 Presidential election in violation of the provision of the PDP Constitution (as amended in 2017) constitute a serious threat to the stability and sustenance of our Party.
Specifically, Section 10 (6) of the PDP Constitution provides that “NO MEMBER of the Party SHALL align with other Parties or groups to undermine the Party or any of its elected government”.
Such anti-party activities have continued to impact negatively on the PDP leading to division, disaffection and heavy hemorrhaging of members with the capacity to diminish our Party’s electoral fortune if not immediately checked.
In the light of the foregoing and the instancy of protecting and preserving the existence of our Party and its electoral fortune, the NWC, pursuant to the provisions of Section 59 (1) of the PDP Constitution hereby issues a strong reprimand against such anti-party activities and cautions those involved to retrace their steps or face stiffer sanctions as provided in the PDP Constitution.
The NWC charges all members of the Party to remain loyal, focused and continue to work assiduously towards the successful conduct of the PDP National Convention scheduled to hold on the 15th and 16th November, 2025 in Ibadan, the Oyo State Capital.
Signed;
Hon. Debo Ologunagba
