PDP Appoints Ogungbenro, Akinniran, Others Into South West Zonal Caretaker Committee

The National Working Committee (NWC) of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has constituted a new South West Zonal Caretaker Committee.

The caretaker committee has Dayo Ogungbenro as Chairman and Daisi Akinniran as Secretary.

This followed the dissolution of the former South West Caretaker Committee by the NWC of the party.

Spokesman of party, Kola Ologbondiyan, said the “action of the NWC is pursuant to Sections 29 (2)(b) and 31(2)(e) of the PDP Constitution (2017 as amended).”

Ologbondiyan gave the names of the other members of the committee as Taiwo Abayomi Kuye, Chief Adeola Ogunrinde, Oyebola Fadeyi Awolowo, Prince Nekan Olagbegi, Funmi Oguns and Owokoniran Olabisi Wahab.

“The new Caretaker Committee is to pilot the affairs of the party in the South West Zone for a period not exceeding three months (90) days as prescribed by section 32(2)(e) of the PDP Constitution pending the conduct of elective zonal congress.

“The NWC enjoins all leaders and members of our great party in the South West zone to continue to work together in harmony especially as the party join forces with the people of Ondo state for a successful governorship election in September,” the PDP spokesman said
