The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Yobe Chapter, has declared its loyalty to its Acting National Chairman, Alhaji Iliya Damagum, and the National Working Committee (NWC) of the party.
This is contained in a communique issued by the state PDP Chairman, Sen. Umar El-Gash, at the end of the party’s expanded executive committee meetings held in Damaturu on Saturday.
He said the chapter fully aligned with the vision, policies and strategic direction of the party, and remained a committed partner in the collective effort to rescue and rebuild Nigeria.
He refuted a baseless and mischievous rumour suggesting that the chapter’s structures had collapsed into the African Democratic Congress (ADC).
“ 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 charged members to show unity from the wards to the national level by promoting peace, inclusion, and collaboration.
He cautioned members of the party 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 youths.
He said that each local government chapter had been tasked to inaugurate a structured grassroots campaign to attract new members and re-energise existing structures.
