The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has extended the tenure of caretaker committees in wards, local governments and state chapters of the party in Anambra.

On Monday, the party disclosed this in a statement by its spokesman Kola Ologbondiyan, in Abuja.

The PDP said the National Working Committee (NWC) decision was because of the urgent need to ensure proper structure in the party organs at all levels across the state.

“In line with the provisions of the PDP constitution 2017 (as amended), the tenure of the caretaker committees has been extended for a period not exceeding 30 days to give stakeholders enough time for broader consultations on the Anambra state chapter of the party,” explained the PDP statement. “The PDP charges all leaders, critical stakeholders and members in Anambra to remain united and continue to work together in the interest of the party in the state.”
