Crisis: PDP not private enterprise – Bode George insists on holding NEC meeting

A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Olabode George has said that the party is not a private enterprise.

The statement comes after police laid siege on the Wadata Plaza National Secretariat of the party on Monday.

The meeting was to precede the expanded caucus meeting.

An ex-National Secretary of the PDP, Umar Tsauri, stated that the police stopped the Board of Trustees (BoT) members, saying they were acting based on an “order from above”.

However, Media Talk Africa reports that the party’s BoT has changed the venue of its scheduled meeting to Shehu Musa Yar’Adua Centre in Abuja.

Reacting to the development, George said PDP is not a private enterprise, adding that the development followed a disagreement between two people.

He said: “The PDP is not a private enterprise. You don’t resolve the crisis you are experiencing outside. It’s a disagreement between two people and we must sit down to resolve it.”
