FCT Police on Wednesday shut down the Wadata Plaza headquarters of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) untill further notice.

This was sequel to the leadership tussle within the opposition party, with rival factions laying claim to the control of the National Working Committee (NWC).

Police personnel are also stationed there to enforce the closure while staff have been sent away from the Secretariat, while party members are not expected to come to the place.

A team of police officers apparently from the works department of the FCT Police Command were seen barricading the place with iron barb wires.

There was a showdown at the PDP National Secretariat on Tuesday as governors of Bauchi and Oyo states have clashed with FCT Minister Nyesom Wike with both parties attempting to take over the National secretariat of the main opposition Peoples Democratic Party in the Wuse Zone 5 District of Abuja.

It was discovered that security operatives loyal to the FCT Minister and Governors Seyi Makinde and Bala Mohammed embarked in a free for all or who would take possession of the PDP National Secretariat with a rainfall of teargas pumped around the vicinity by both parties.

While Governor Seyo stormed the venue with the newly elected National Secretary, Taofeek Arapaja, Nyesom Wike stayed put with Samuel Anyanwu, the embattled National Secretary of the party who insists his tenure is still in place till December 8, 2025.

Party leaders are now expressing worry over the development accusing the Police of not being neutral in the leadership crisis facing the Peoples Democratic Party.
