The high-powered delegation, headed by NCOC Chairman and Adamawa State Governor, Umaru Fintiri, is currently conducting a comprehensive assessment of logistics, key infrastructure, security plans, and welfare arrangements.
The inspection precedes the highly anticipated convention, which is scheduled to take place on November 15-16, 2025.
This strategic visit follows preceding meetings of various sub-committees, including those involving the host governor of the #Ibadan2025 convention, Seyi Makinde.
The assessment visit underscored the PDP’s commitment to hosting a flawless, secure, and motivational convention intended to elect the party’s new national leadership and define a strong direction for Nigeria’s democratic future.
According to the party, Makinde has meticulously addressed every necessary detail, from the expansion of the Ibadan airport and road upgrades to robust security protocols.
The convention, branded as #Ibadan2025, is projected to be a major success and a turning point for the PDP’s return to power.
The NCOC team, which also includes Deputy Chairman Tanimu Turaki, Secretary Senator Ben Obi, and other key stakeholders, is scheduled to tour upgraded facilities.
