Some members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) National Working Committee (NWC) have declared their support for the recent court judgment that sacked the party's executives from the ward to the state levels in Rivers State.

The PDP leaders disclosed their position when they visited Governor Siminalayi Fubara at the government house in Port Harcourt, the Rivers state capital, on Wednesday night, January 22. The NWC members also held a closed-door meeting with the governor.

Debo Ologunagba, the PDP national publicity secretary, led the delegation to the governor.

While speaking during the visit, the PDP national treasurer, Ahmed Mohammed, declared Governor Fubara as the PDP leader in Rivers State.

The PDP leader described their visit as part of their move to realign the party and plan for the 2027 general elections.

Mohammed expressed their commitment to securing stability, fostering unity and effectively repositioning the PDP in Rivers State.

He also maintained that the NWC was behind Ude Okoye, who the Court of Appeal recently reinstated as the PDP National Secretary. He then urged the party stakeholders and governors to support the emergence of Okoye.
