The National Working Committee (NWC) of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) on Monday, June 24, began investigation into how some of its members allegedly compromised during the election of principal officers of the National Assembly.
The party’s NWC, according to national spokesperson, Kola Ologbondiyan, set up a fact-finding committee on the role played by some of its members during the election.
The terms of reference of the committee are as follow:
1. To find out why some of our honorable members and senators-elect then, failed to abide by the decision of the party during the National Assembly leadership election;
- To find out whether there is any involvement of the ruling Party in the decision taken by the members involved;
-
Where there are established reasons for taking the action by members, the committee should identify such so that the party can create mutual and political atmosphere for reasonable interaction with senators and honourable members;
-
To find out and recommend ways to checkmate such tendencies in the future and ensure that, moving forward, all members work together to defend the interest of the party at all times and circumstances.
The committee was given three weeks from the date of its inauguration to report to the NWC.
The committee is chaired by former president of the Senate, Adolphus Wabara, while a former national secretary of the PDP, Prof Wale Oladipo, serves as its secretary.
Other members of the committee include;
Senator Ibrahim Mantu,
Stella Omu,
Hon Austin Opara,
