The Yobe chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party has declared its loyalty to its acting national chairman, Iliya Damagum, and the party’s National Working Committee.
This was announced in a communique issued by the PDP chairman in Yobe, Umar El-Gash, at the end of the party’s expanded executive committee meetings held in Damaturu on Saturday.
He stated that the chapter fully aligned with the party’s vision, policies, and strategic direction, and remained a committed partner in the collective effort to rescue and rebuild Nigeria.
He refuted as baseless and mischievous a rumour suggesting that the chapter’s structures had been collapsed into the African Democratic Congress.
“The party remains intact, focused, and loyal to its identity as a proud and enduring pillar of Nigeria’s democratic process. Any such speculation is the handiwork of political mischief makers aimed at sowing confusion and disunity within our ranks,” he said.
He urged members to demonstrate unity from the ward level to the national level by promoting peace, inclusion, and collaboration.
He cautioned party members against indiscipline, saying discipline remained the bedrock of any organised political structure.
“The State Executive Committee, in consultation with local government chairmen, resolved to uphold party rules and discourage acts of indiscipline, anti-party behaviour, and disloyalty. Mechanisms will be strengthened to ensure compliance with the party’s constitution and code of conduct,” he said.
The PDP chapter resolved to embark on a massive and inclusive membership mobilisation with a strong focus on women and youth.
He said that each local government chapter had been tasked with inaugurating a structured grassroots campaign to attract new members and re-energize existing structures.
