APC Chairman Meets PDP Deputy Women Leader to Discuss National Unity
The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Nentawe Yilwatda, disclosed a recent meeting with the Deputy National Women Leader of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) faction loyal to Kabiru Turaki, Mrs. Hamsatu Adamu.
Yilwatda said their discussions focused on the need for national unity and the future of Nigeria, adding that beyond political differences, they agreed that peace, stability, and progress of Nigeria must remain a shared priority.
He quoted his statement: “I had a cordial meeting with Mrs. Hamsatu Adamu, Deputy National Woman Leader in the Kabiru Tanimu Turaki-led PDP National Working Committee. Our discussions centered on the need for national unity and the future of Nigeria. We agreed that, beyond political differences, the peace, stability, and progress of our nation must remain our shared priority.”
The APC Chairman also hinted at holding further meetings with other opposition party chieftains, reiterating his commitment to engaging all patriotic Nigerians in building a stronger, more united, and more prosperous Nigeria.
Meanwhile, a faction of the PDP said it submitted the name of former President Goodluck Jonathan to INEC as its presidential candidate for the 2027 general election amid the party’s leadership crisis.
The National Publicity Secretary of the Interim National Working Committee, Ini Ememobong, said INEC acknowledged receipt of the documents despite allegedly denying the faction access to electronic submission codes.
Ememobong maintained that the faction is the authentic leadership of the PDP, arguing that a Supreme Court judgment left the party without a legally recognised national leadership, prompting the Board of Trustees and a National Executive Committee meeting to establish an interim leadership structure.
