The leadership of the New Peoples Democratic Party seems not perturbed by the sealing off of its national secretariat in Abuja by the police last Saturday and has, therefore, resolved to forge ahead by putting in place necessary machinery that will enable it function effectively.
Consequently, the National Secretary, Prince Olagunsoye Oyinlola, on Monday announced the composition of other members of the National Working Committee.
It will be recalled that at the formation of the parallel NEC a couple of weeks ago, only three offices were named – Alhaji Abubakar Kawu Baraje, as National Chairman; Dr. Sam Sam Jaja, Deputy National Chairman; and Oyinlola as National Secretary.
Other officers, according to a statement on Monday by Oyinlola are: Hon. Maode Umar Hiliya (Deputy National Secretary), Timi Frank (National Youth Leader), Hon. Binta Koje, (National Woman leader), Mallam Nasir Issa (National Organising Secretary), Chief Eze Chukwuemeka Eze (National Publicity Secretary), Hon. Aliyu Wadada (National Financial Secretary) and Mallam Tanko Isiaku Gomna (National treasurer).
Oyinlola said party’s stakeholders from across the country at a meeting in Abuja ratified the new positions.
“The positions of National Auditor and that of National Legal Adviser which are zoned to the South East and South West respectfully, will be announced soon,” the statement added.
