The Peoples Democratic Party Governors’ Forum (PDP-GF) has strongly denied reports claiming its Chairman, Governor Bala Mohammed, or his associates filed a lawsuit in Gusau, Zamfara State, to compel the party to hold its National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting as scheduled.
In a statement issued by Dr. Emmanuel Agbo, Director General of the PDP-GF, the forum refuted the allegations, branding the report as “false and malicious.” The statement emphasized that neither the Bauchi Governor nor any proxy acting on his behalf was connected to the lawsuit.
The PDP-GF urged the public to disregard the claims, which were described as an attempt to tarnish Governor Mohammed’s image. The forum also reiterated its call for party members to withdraw ongoing court cases to promote internal reconciliation.
This comes as a Federal High Court in Abuja recently ruled that PDP’s Acting National Chairman, Amb. Umar Damagum, cannot be removed from office until December 2025, following a separate case brought by party members in Yobe State.
