Wike’s PDP Faction Re-elects Abdulrahman Mohammed, Sam Anyanwu as Chairman, Secretary
A faction of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) aligned with Nyesom Wike has re-elected Abdulrahman Mohammed as National Chairman and Sam Anyanwu as National Secretary, reinforcing its internal leadership structure amid the party’s lingering crisis.
The decision was reached during a factional meeting attended by loyalists and key stakeholders who expressed confidence in the duo’s ability to steer the party through ongoing political challenges. The exercise signals a consolidation of power within Wike’s camp, which has remained influential despite divisions within the PDP at the national level.
Party insiders say the re-election aims to provide stability and direction for members aligned with the faction, especially ahead of future electoral activities. Supporters argue that continuity in leadership is necessary to strengthen grassroots mobilization and maintain political relevance.
However, the development is expected to deepen existing tensions within the PDP, as rival factions continue to contest legitimacy and control of party structures. Analysts warn that unresolved internal disputes could affect the party’s unity and performance in upcoming elections.
Efforts to reconcile aggrieved members have so far yielded limited results, with both sides maintaining firm positions on leadership and party direction. Political observers believe that without a unified front, the PDP may struggle to effectively challenge its opponents on the national stage.
