The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has named a 31-member Caretaker Committee to oversee the affairs of its Akwa Ibom State chapter.
The development followed the dissolution of the State Executive Committee by the National Working Committee (NWC) on Tuesday, in line with the provisions of the party’s constitution.
‘Consequently, the NWC approved the composition of a Caretaker Committee to run the affairs of the Akwa Ibom State chapter of our Party from today, Tuesday, 30th September 2025, for a period not exceeding three months, or until such a time a new State Executive Committee will be elected in the State,’ the National Publicity Secretary, Honourable Debo Ologunagba, said in a statement on Tuesday.
The Caretaker Committee is chaired by Igwat Umoren. His Deputy is Harrison Ekpo, while the Secretary of the Committee is Borono Bassey.
‘The NWC calls on all leaders, critical stakeholders and teeming members of our Party in Akwa Ibom State to remain united and continue to work together for the progress of the Party,’ the statement added.
