The National Working Commitee of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) on Tuesday met with former President Goodluck Jonathan.
The closed-door meeting held at Jonathan’s office in the Maitama area of Abuja, the nation’s capital.
Members of the party’s National Working Committee (NWC) and some state PDP chairmen joined Turaki at the meeting.
Sources told Press that the party’s leadership was discussing issues bordering on the party and national interest.
Addressing journalists, Turaki said the PDP leaders briefed Jonathan about the prospects that the party has as far as the ongoing legal battles are concerned.
According to him, the former president also pledged his support for the PDP, saying, “the PDP has done enough for him, and he will try his best to do more for the party.”
The PDP has been embroiled in a leadership crisis with two men claiming to be the party’s national chairman.
While Abdulrahman Mohammed is being backed by the camp loyal to the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, Taminu Turaki is backed by the camps loyal to Bauchi State Governor, Bala Mohammed and his Oyo State counterpart, Seyi Makinde.
