The revamped team will draw membership from all eight Local Government Areas in the state, as well as representatives from the non-indigene community—a move described as inclusive and reflective of the party’s diversity.


“It is the Chairman’s belief that the reconstitution of the State PDP New Media Team will not only be beneficial to the party but will also serve as a vital avenue for public engagement, critical for the effective governance and administration of the PDP in the State,” the party noted.


The party extended its congratulations to Mr. Godspower on what it described as a well-deserved appointment, expressing optimism that his leadership will strengthen the PDP’s visibility and communication machinery across the state.
