INEC clarifies PDP attendance at party meeting not endorsement of any faction

The Independent National Electoral Commission has stated that the attendance of the Anyanwu-led National Working Committee of the Peoples Democratic Party at a party meeting does not mean endorsement of any faction.

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) issued a clarification regarding the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). It emphasized that the presence of the Anyanwu-led National Working Committee (NWC) at a recent party meeting should not be interpreted as support for any particular faction within the party. This statement aims to address potential misunderstandings about INEC's neutrality in party affairs. The commission's position underscores its commitment to impartiality amid ongoing internal dynamics in the PDP. No further details on the meeting or factions were provided in the announcement.
