The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has officially reinstated Samuel Anyanwu as its National Secretary.
The announcement was made on Wednesday, June 25, 2025, during a press briefing by the Acting National Chairman of the party, Ambassador Iliya Damagum.
He was joined by prominent party figures including Bauchi State Governor, Bala Mohammed, former Senate President, Bukola Saraki, and other key stakeholders.
Damagum explained that the decision to reinstate Anyanwu into the party’s National Working Committee (NWC) was not an easy one but was ultimately endorsed by a majority of members and the party’s organs.
“It was a critical decision,” Damagum said, highlighting the deliberations that led to the resolution.
He also confirmed the cancellation of the earlier scheduled National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting, stating: “We will have an expanded Caucus, at the next Caucus we will take a decision leading to a proper NEC.”
Clarifying the June 30 arrangement, Damagum added, “Anyanwu is resuming as the National Secretary, that is why I said it was a critical decision. Like INEC said they don’t have our notice, so what we will have on June 30th is an extended Caucus.”
More updates are expected as the situation develops.
