Wike’s PDP fixes May 25 for 2027 presidential primary

The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike-backed Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has released its timetable for 2027 General Elections, fixing May 25 for the Presidential primary election

The party announced the development in a communique issued at the end of the 106th National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting, read by the National Publicity Secretary, Mr Jungudo Mohammed, in Abuja on Wednesday.

The NEC fixed the submission of the membership register for April 10, State Assembly primaries for May 2, National Assembly primaries for May 9, and gubernatorial primaries for May 16.

It explained that the timetable was in line with the revised timetable and schedule of activities for the 2027 General Elections as issued by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), pursuant to the provisions of the Electoral Act, 2022.

It noted the proposed schedule of activities was in compliance with the INEC timetable, including the submission of the party’s register of members to the commission and conduct of party primaries for various elective offices.

“This also included the timelines for the resolution of disputes arising from such primaries,” it added.

It urged all organs and stakeholders of the party to commence the necessary preparations and ensure strict adherence to the approved timetable and all relevant statutory provisions.

The NEC commended the National Caretaker Working Committee (NCWC) led by Abdulrahman Mohammed for its commitment and efforts in stabilising the party and guiding its affairs during this transitional period.

The committee noted with satisfaction the successful conduct of the Ward and Local Government Congresses while the State Congresses were scheduled to hold this weekend across the country.

It expressed confidence that the congress would be peaceful, transparent, and in strict compliance with the constitution and guidelines of the party.
