The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) says it will hold an emergency National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting on Tuesday February 19, 2019.
The invitation by the National Publicity Secretary of the party, Kola Ologbondiyan says the PDP NEC meeting is scheduled to hold at the national secretariat of the party in Abuja at 12 noon, and is expected to discuss the fallout of the postponement of the general elections by INEC.
The PDP has expressed outrage over the postponement of the elections, and accused the ruling APC of an attempt to rig the polls by allegedly asking INEC to stagger the polls but INEC Chairman, Prof. Mahmood Yakubu, had ruled out any form of political influence in reaching the decision, saying it was based on the logistical challenges that cropped up in the run-up to the polls.
The meeting comes a day after the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) caucus met in Abuja, where the party condemned the postponement of the general elections by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and accused the electoral umpire of colluding with the opposition PDP.
