RESOLUTIONS OF THE 62 nd MEETING OF THE NATIONAL EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE HELD ON THURSDAY, 22 ND AUGUST 2013. Gentlemen of the Press, The 62nd meeting of the National Executive Committee of our great Party, the PDP has just been concluded here at our National Secretariat. The meeting, which came shortly after the 61st NEC held on 20th June 2013 had the President, Vice President, Senate President, Speaker of the House of Representatives, Leaders of the National Assembly, State Governors and other distinguished members of NEC in attendance. The meeting considered crucial party matters and resolved as follows: 1. NEC unanimously approved and ratified 31 August 2013 as the date for the Special National Convention of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). NEC commended the Special Congresses and Convention Planning Committee for the efforts so far put in place in the preparation for the Convention. 2. NEC acknowledged the service of a Court Injunction restraining the conduct of the South West Zonal Congress earlier scheduled for Saturday 24th of August 2013. In line with our avowed disposition to uphold the rule of Law and in deference to the Court ruling, NEC unanimously approved the postponement of the South West Zonal Congress. Consequently, NEC directed the National Working Committee (NWC) to follow through the court process and when concluded set a new date for the South West Zonal Congress. 3. NEC observed a minute silence in honour of some officials sent to conduct ward congresses in Anambra State who died in a ghastly motor accident recently. NEC also paid tribute to the Deputy Speaker of the Jigawa State House of Assembly who also died in a road accident recently and prayed for the repose of the soul of the Gombe State Chairman of PDP Mr. Jack Gumpy who passed away recently.
