The National Working Committee of the Peoples Democratic Party has passed a Vote of Confidence on the party’s Acting National Chairman, Umar Damagum.
The party’s National Publicity Secretary, Debo Ologunagba, made this known Wednesday in a statement in Abuja.
He said the vote of confidence was passed at the NWC’s 584th meeting on Tuesday in Abuja.
Ologunagba said the decision was based on Damagum’s efforts aimed at repositioning the PDP as the main opposition party in Nigeria.
