This decision is aimed at ensuring continuity and stability within the party as we prepare for 2027 general elections.
"The caucus also resolved that any local government area that feels its representative in the executive committee has not performed satisfactorily may initiate a replacement process.
"Meanwhile, any local government areas whose representatives have decamped from the party were mandated to nominate new and credible representatives to replace them."
The caucus commended the leadership of the National Executive for fostering an environment that allows for constructive engagement and inclusivity within the party.
It also called members and stakeholders to rally behind the party's leadership and work together towards achieving victory in the 2027 general elections.
