The electoral umpire had rejected a notification by the PDP for its 100th National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting.
The leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) are meeting behind closed doors with officials of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) at the commission’s headquarters in Abuja.
The electoral umpire had rejected a notification by the PDP for its 100th National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting. INEC had said the letter of notification failed to comply with extant rules and guidelines. 
INEC also cited the internal crisis around the national secretary of the party as the reason for declining the request.
At the meeting on Tuesday, INEC Chairman, Mahmood Yakubu, alluded to this, as he informed the PDP leaders about the inconsistencies that the secretaryship tussle has generated.
PDP leaders in attendance include the acting National Chairman of the party, Umar Damagum; former Senate President Bukola Saraki, as well as governors of Bauchi, Zamfara, Plateau and Oyo states.
