PDP has not released timetable for 2023 general elections-Party
The Peoples Democratic Party PDP, said it has yet to release timetable for the 2023 general elections, stating that any timetable purported to emanate from the party is fake.
National Working Committee (NWC) of PDP raise the alarm Sunday over a fake election timetable being circulated in the social media.
PDP said the timetable was purported to have been signed and released by the National Organizing Secretary of the PDP, Hon. Umar M. Bature, as the Schedule of Activities and Timetable of the PDP for the 2023 general elections.
The party said, at the appropriate time, it would not only announce but also publish the official Timetable and Schedule of its Activities through the official communication channels of PDP, when approved.
“Not in the social media”, the party emphasised.
National Publicity Secretary of the party, Hon. Debo Ologunagba said in a statement, “The PDP states in clear terms that it is has NOT released any timetable or any schedule of activities whatsoever for the 2022/2023 electioneering year and no such document was signed and released by the National Organizing Secretary.
“For the avoidance of doubt, the PDP is a Party of Due Process and will release a Timetable and Schedule of Activities for the 2022/2023 electioneering year after extensive consultation and approval by critical and statutory organs of the Party at appropriate levels.
“Clearly, the said Timetable and Schedule of Activities being circulated in the social media is the handiwork of mischievous elements who seeks to create confusion, mislead the public and distract our Party at this critical point in time”.
The PDP therefore calls on all members of the arty and the general public to discountenance the said timetable and Schedule of Activities as it did not emanate from the party.
