PDP making progress in implementing convention’s resolutions – Makarfi

Following the suspension of its national convention, the Peoples’ Democratic Party (PDP) has extended the tenure of Ahmed Makarfi-led caretaker committee for one year.

The extension was effected through vote of confidence by the national delegates at the party’s secretariat in Port Harcourt, River State capital on Wednesday.

This is coming after the unresolved legal tussle over the party’s leadership, and the sealing of the planned convention venue in Port Harcourt.
