Governors elected on the platform of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) will on Monday, 26th July 2021, meet at Bauchi, to examine and deliberate on the current state of the nation and their respective states.

Other issues the governors will deliberate on are; unemployment, the generally parlous state of the Nigerian economy, the health of Nigeria’s democracy, including the Electoral Act Amendment and Constitution Alteration bills pending before the National Assembly.

The governors, under the aegis of PDP Governors Forum, in a statement by its Director-General, Hon CID Maduabum, said that the meeting will continue to interrogate the Federal Governments response to the insecurity still pervading the country and proffer workable solutions.

The Forum said: “The governors will continue to benchmark and exchange information and ideas on best practices on various aspects of governance in their respective states, as the PDP States and their governors are currently the major beacons of light, delivering substantial democracy benefits through projects and policies impacting on the lives of Nigerians, within the limits of the general bad governance by APC led Federal Government.

“The governors will also receive reports of some of the committees working on various aspects of party repositioning including the E- Registration programme of the Party.

“His Excellency, Senator Bala Abdulkadir Mohamed, CON, Bauchi State Governor is the Chief Host, and will be presided over by Rt Hon Aminu Waziri Tambuwal, CFR, the Forum Chairman and attended by all PDP governors.” (Text, excluding headline, courtesy Sunday Independent)
