The factional Acting National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Abdulrahman Muhammed, has said the era of impunity, manipulation, or disregard for the constitution of the party is over.
Muhammed said this on Friday during the inauguration of the party’s new Board of Trustees, at the official residence of the FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike. He described the event as “a symbol of rebirth,” and the beginning of a new era of transparency and accountability within the party.
NewsBits reports that Muhammed assumed office after the suspension of the former National Chairman of the PDP by a faction led by the party’s Secretary, Senator Sam Anyanwu, who suspended the National Chairman, Amb Umar Damagum, announcing Muhammad as acting Chairman in his stead.
Addressing party members on Friday, he stated that the party had lost its moral balance due to years of internal disunity and disregard for court orders.
“For too long, impunity became culture, and internal democracy became an afterthought. But today, we have reached the point of renewal.
“Today marks a significant turning point in the life of the Peoples Democratic Party. We have come together, not merely to inaugurate a new Board of Trustees, but to renew our faith in the ideals that gave birth to this great political family – justice, fairness, inclusivity, and respect for the rule of law,” he said.
