Tensions are rising within the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) as the faction led by expelled members, including Nyesom Wike, calls for an emergency meeting. The meeting aims to address recent expulsions and chart the way forward for the group.

Party sources indicate that the Wike-led faction is determined to challenge the decisions made by the national leadership, raising concerns about potential internal conflicts ahead of the 2027 elections. Analysts say this could deepen divisions within the party if not managed carefully.

The emergency meeting is expected to bring together top officials and loyalists of the expelled faction to discuss strategies, possible legal actions, and the faction’s future role within the PDP. Observers are closely watching for any announcements or declarations that may emerge from the gathering.

Political commentators warn that the current standoff could influence PDP’s cohesion and electoral prospects, with stakeholders urging dialogue to prevent a full-scale split.
