Senator Samuel Anyanwu-led National Working Committee, NWC, of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has arrived at the party’s headquarters as rival factions prepare to hold meetings on Tuesday at the same location.
Settling into his office, Anyanwu insisted that he remains the party’s substantive national secretary until his tenure expires in December.
#Muktv reports that there is heavy security at the party’s National Secretariat at Wadata Plaza, Wuse Zone 5 in Abuja.
Anyanwu confirmed affirmatively when asked whether he invited the security operatives who had barricaded major sections outside the premises.
According to him, it is the PDP’s usual practice to call in security personnel whenever a meeting of such magnitude is scheduled, in order to maintain law and order.
The expelled National Secretary further explained that the security personnel were also on standby to deal with any “intruders,” a remark clearly directed at the Turaki-led exco, which had also announced plans to hold its own meeting at the Wadata Plaza headquarters.
