PDP Convention: Dignitaries flood Ibadan for party convention

The Peoples Democratic Party on Saturday launched its 2025 Elective National Convention, tagged #Ibadan2025, at the Lekan Salami Stadium in Adamasingba, Ibadan.

“Over 3,000 delegates, governors, National Executive Committee members, Board of Trustees (BoT) members, and party stakeholders from across the 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory converged to witness the historic event.

“The two-day convention, which runs November 15–16, will culminate in the election of a new National Working Committee, including a National Chairman, tasked with steering the party toward the 2027 general elections,” Babangida Umar writes for the party in a release on the party’s official X account on Saturday.

The convention followed delays, factional disputes, and attempts by some parties to involve INEC and the courts to prevent it from taking place.

“Ibadan, with its modern infrastructure and world-class facilities, was celebrated as a fitting host, evoking memories of the party’s transformative 1998 Jos convention,” the statement concluded.

Further updates from the PDP convention are expected as the event progresses.
