The national convention of the Peoples Democratic Party ( PDP) ended in confusion on Saturday with the postponement and election by factions of the party.
While the National Chairman of the party, Senator Ali Modu Sheriff, said the national convention in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, has been postponed due to court injunctions, a former Governor of Kaduna, Sen. Ahmed Makarfi, was reportedly elected the party’s caretaker national chairman by another group.
Senator Ben Obi was said to have been named the national secretary of the party.
Earlier in the day, a splinter group led by Prof. Jerry Gana gathered in Abuja to hold a parallel convention after the pro- Sheriff group insisted on its plan to organise the convention in Port Harcourt.
The Prof. Gana group is said to be favourably disposed to the idea of putting in place a caretaker committee to run the affairs of the party, pending the conduct of an acceptable national convention.
