PDP Crisis Deepens as New Enugu Caretaker Committee Emerges

The factional National Working Committee of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), aligned with the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, has officially inaugurated a new caretaker committee for Enugu State. The move adds a new layer of tension to the ongoing leadership crisis shaking the opposition party nationwide.

Sources say the faction loyal to the FCT Minister is pushing to reposition its influence across strategic states ahead of 2027. The inauguration reportedly took place under tight political coordination, with members promising to restore order in the Enugu chapter of the party.

Political analysts describe the development as a sign that the PDP’s internal battles are far from over. With multiple factions claiming legitimacy, the party risks deeper division that could weaken its electoral strength. Some party elders fear that the constant power play may drive more loyal members into other political platforms.

Meanwhile, the Enugu chapter now faces uncertainty as loyalists of the former structure and the newly inaugurated committee prepare for a fierce struggle over control, decision-making, and party direction. Many observers believe this could affect the party’s stability in the state.
