Ibadan PDP National Convention Nullified, Caretaker Committee Retains Authority
The Federal High Court in Ibadan has nullified the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) National Convention held on November 15, 2025, in Ibadan, Oyo State.
The court barred Waziri Turaki and others from presenting themselves as national officers of the party. It ruled that the PDP Caretaker Committee, led by Abdulrahman and Senator Samuel Anyanwu, remains the only legally recognised National Working Committee (NWC) until a valid National Convention is conducted.
Observers note that the judgement reinforces the judiciary’s role in resolving internal party disputes and sets a legal framework for future PDP conventions. Analysts say the ruling strengthens the caretaker committee’s authority and could influence the party’s strategy ahead of upcoming elections.
The decision marks a setback for the faction behind the Ibadan convention and underscores ongoing leadership tensions within the PDP.
