The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Nigeria is struggling with significant internal conflicts as factional leaders prepare to assert their influence despite existing court orders. The party, once a dominant force in Nigerian politics, is facing challenges that threaten its unity and effectiveness as the country approaches the 2024 general elections.
Recent developments within the PDP have revealed deep divisions, with various factions vying for control and leadership positions. The party’s factional national chairman has indicated intentions to assume leadership responsibilities, which could exacerbate existing tensions among party members. This internal strife comes at a critical time, as the PDP aims to present a united front against rival political parties, particularly the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
