Concerned Nigerian Youth Stand Against PDP Governors Forum’s Move to Replace Samuel Anyanwu*

 *Concerned Nigerian Youth Stand Against PDP Governors Forum’s Move to Replace Samuel Anyanwu*

 We, the Concerned Nigerian Youth, rise today with one voice to vehemently oppose the PDP Governors Forum’s audacious recommendation to replace Senator Samuel Anyanwu as the National Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). This recommendation, announced on April 14, 2025, is not only a direct affront to justice but also a shameless attempt to undermine the rule of law and the will of the party’s grassroots supporters.

Let it be clear: The Supreme Court of Nigeria has already declared Senator Samuel Anyanwu as the authentic National Secretary of the PDP. This ruling is final, binding, and a testament to his legitimacy as a leader within the party. Yet, despite this unequivocal judicial affirmation, the PDP Governors Forum has chosen to push for his replacement with a temporary appointee. This move, as reported by Sahara Reporters and other credible sources, is nothing short of political recklessness and an insult to the judiciary and the Nigerian people.

Senator Anyanwu has proven himself a loyal and resilient leader, steering the party through turbulent times with unwavering dedication. His tenure as National Secretary is a beacon of hope for millions of PDP supporters, especially the youth, who see in him a commitment to fairness and party unity. For the Governors Forum to attempt to unseat him now after the Supreme Court has spoken is a brazen display of impunity that threatens the very soul of the PDP.

We ask the Governors Forum: On what grounds do you defy the Supreme Court? Why do you seek to destabilize the party with actions that contradict the law and alienate its base? This is not leadership; it is a power grab dressed up as a recommendation. The PDP cannot afford to lose its credibility or its connection with the people over the ambitions of a few.

To the PDP leadership,

Governors Forum, Board of Trustees, and National Working Committe, we deliver this message: Respect the Supreme Court’s ruling. Honor Senator Anyanwu’s rightful position as National Secretary. Cease this unnecessary crisis and focus on rebuilding the party ahead of future challenges. To our fellow Nigerians, we urge you to stand with us in condemning this overreach. The PDP must remain a party of the people, not a playground for the powerful.

The Concerned Nigerian Youth will not stand by while the rule of law is trampled and the future of our party is jeopardized. We proudly stand with Senator Samuel Anyanwu, the Supreme Court-recognized National Secretary, and we call for a PDP rooted in justice, unity, and the aspirations of all Nigerians.
