The Peoples Democratic Party has settled on Ibadan as the host city for its upcoming elective convention, marking a major step in its plan to reshape its leadership structure. The decision followed a closed-door meeting of top party figures in Abuja late Thursday.

The announcement came from Adamawa State governor Ahmadu Fintiri, who chairs the convention planning committee. He spoke briefly after the session, confirming that the party will move ahead with the gathering in Oyo State’s capital.

The meeting drew key power brokers, including Oyo State governor Seyi Makinde, PDP National Chairman Umar Damagum, former Senate President Bukola Saraki, and several senior party officials. Their discussions centred on preparing the party for the next phase of its internal rebuilding.
The choice of Ibadan holds weight for the PDP, as the convention is expected to shape the direction of the party at a time when internal cohesion remains a challenge. Stakeholders are also using the platform to close ranks and steady the organisation before major political contests.
Details of the resolutions reached were not disclosed, as Fintiri was ushered out by security personnel shortly after addressing journalists. His brief remarks, however, confirmed that the date and venue remain unchanged.
With preparations now in full swing, the PDP is turning its focus toward organising a smooth convention that will guide its next steps and define its leadership heading into future elections.
