The Forum of 36 States Youth Council of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) held an extraordinary meeting in Abuja to review the state of affairs within our great party and to deliberate on the conduct of certain members whose actions have continued to undermine party unity, discipline, and integrity.

In a statement signed by Hon. Osita Amechi (Rivers State) on behalf of the PDP Youth Council, the Forum, after extensive deliberations, reached a unanimous decision concerning the former Governor of Rivers State and current Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Mr. Nyesom Wike.

According to the Forum, Mr. Wike, through his actions and open collaboration with the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), has violated the core principles, values, and loyalty expected of a member of the PDP.

> “After extensive deliberations and in line with our commitment to protect the integrity of our party, the Forum unanimously agreed that Mr. Nyesom Wike has acted in ways that are inimical to the unity and progress of the PDP,” the statement read.

Consequently, we, the youth representatives of the PDP across the 36 states of the federation, hereby announce the expulsion of Nyesom Wike from the PDP.

This decision reflects the collective will of our members nationwide, who can no longer tolerate his continued attempts to destabilize and discredit our great party from within.
We therefore call on the National Working Committee (NWC), National Executive Committee (NEC), and the Board of Trustees (BOT) of the PDP to accept and formally ratify this resolution in the interest of justice, discipline, and the overall sanity of the party.

Our resolve remains firm — the PDP must continue to be a credible alternative to the ruling APC. To achieve this, the party must be purged of elements working as agents of distraction and destruction.

We reaffirm our unwavering commitment to the ideals of democracy, unity, and selfless service to Nigerians under the noble umbrella of the People’s Democratic Party.

In the years following the Nigerian Civil War, the Federal Government adopted education as a vital tool for promoting national unity and integration.

This vision led to the establishment of Federal Unity Colleges—institutions designed to bring together students from diverse ethnic, religious, and socio-economic backgrounds, fostering harmony while providing quality education.

In a statement signed on Friday by President of the Federal Government Girls’ College (FGGC) Calabar Old Girls Association (Global), Dr. Diana Mary Tiku Nsan highlighted that upon graduation, students of unity schools continue to play crucial roles in nation-building, fostering unity, and driving progress through their alumni networks.

To this end, the FGGC Calabar Old Girls Association (Global) will hold its inaugural Annual General Meeting (AGM) from November 13th to 16th, 2025, in Abuja, under the theme: “Turning Friendships into Profitable Partnerships.”

Alumnae from across Nigeria and around the world have expressed strong enthusiasm for the maiden AGM, during which the first Global Executive Committee of the Association will be elected by accredited delegates representing global chapters.

Prior to this, the Association had been managed by a Caretaker Committee led by Mary Ann Mogalu, which also established an AGM Planning Committee chaired by Elizabeth Eminue-Abasiekong to organize this landmark event and oversee the formation of the Global Executive.

The dedication, passion, and teamwork of these women have been instrumental in sustaining and advancing the goals of the Association.

The four-day event will open with a Meet and Greet session and will feature strategic business sessions, Jumat prayers, chapter reports, the swearing-in ceremony of the Global Executive, a thanksgiving service, and a variety of social and networking activities. Registered participants—comprising proud alumnae of FGGC Calabar—are eagerly anticipating the celebration.

Dr. Nsan, who also serves as the President of the Calabar Chapter, underscored the importance of members upholding the Federal Unity Colleges’ motto, “Pro Unitate” (For Unity), as a guiding principle for adding value at every level—personal, institutional, and national.

She extended her best wishes to all members for a successful and impactful maiden AGM.
