Akpoti-Uduaghan Urges Unity in PDP, Says Supreme Court Ruling Didn’t Affect Anyanwu

Amid ongoing tensions within the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan has called on party members to embrace dialogue and resolve disputes amicably.

Reacting to debates triggered by the recent Supreme Court of Nigeria judgment, she dismissed claims linking the ruling to the status of PDP National Secretary Samuel Anyanwu.

“The Supreme Court judgment only invalidated the Ibadan Convention. Beware of propaganda,” she stated, emphasising that the court did not address issues related to Anyanwu’s suspension.

Through her media aide, Sam Idoko, the senator noted that Anyanwu’s suspension ended on December 1, 2025, and that he was subsequently appointed to serve on a caretaker committee.

She reiterated the need for unity within the party, saying, “I sincerely wish that all aggrieved members of our PDP family resolve matters amicably.”

Akpoti-Uduaghan also expressed confidence in the PDP’s electoral chances, stating, “The PDP will field candidates in the 2027 general elections, and we shall definitely win a good number of seats.”

While acknowledging internal disagreements, she maintained a reconciliatory tone and extended goodwill to other political parties as preparations for the 2027 general elections gather momentum.
