PDP event
The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike-backed faction of the Peoples Democratic Party has explained its absence from the party’s national secretariat on Monday, stating that ongoing administrative and security processes surrounding the reopening of the facility influenced its decision.
National Publicity Secretary of the National Caretaker Committee, Jungudo Mohammed, told The PUNCH in an exclusive interview that claims that the police declined their request to access the secretariat were untrue.
Mohammed said, “I am not aware that the police declined our request, and I do not believe that is true. The police are the appropriate authority to confirm why the secretariat has not yet been opened, and we cannot force them.
“They are still carrying out their administrative and security processes before taking final action. However, we are certain that the secretariat will be reopened.
“The police must open the secretariat because they are required to comply with the court order. The closure resulted from disagreements within the party over who constitutes the genuine leadership, but that matter has already been settled by the court.
“Therefore, the police are expected to reopen the secretariat to allow for the lawful activities and business of the political party.
“It is not true that the police declined our request; what we know is that they intend to reopen it once their internal processes are concluded.” Punch
