PDP Governors Urge Calm Ahead of Appeal Court Ruling on March 9
PDP Governors' Forum chair Senator Bala Mohammed has appealed to party members nationwide to remain calm as the Appeal Court prepares to deliver its judgment on the party's leadership crisis on Monday, March 9, 2026. In a statement released Sunday, the forum emphasized respect for the judicial process, with Director-General Dr Emmanuel Agbo noting the judiciary's vital role in ensuring fairness and stability in Nigeria's democracy. "Whatever the outcome," the statement affirmed, "the PDP reaffirms its respect for the judicial process and its commitment to peace." The forum will meet immediately after the ruling to review implications and chart post-verdict actions. Despite INEC's 2027 election timetable, the PDP pledged to protect members' political aspirations while upholding democratic values of diverse voices and credible alternatives.
