The Nigeria Police Force has unsealed the National Secretariat of the Peoples’ Democratic Party (PDP) at Wadata Plaza, Zone 5, Abuja, along with Legacy House in Maitama, handing control back to the party’s National Chairman, Hon. Abdulrahman Takushara, and National Secretary, Senator Samuel Anyanwu, in compliance with court orders.
The move ends a high-stakes standoff over the party’s headquarters and signals that the Nyesom Wike-aligned leadership has regained control, both legally and physically, after days of internal tension.
The development was confirmed in a statement signed by the PDP National Publicity Secretary, Hon. Jungudo Haruna Mohammed, on Saturday.
“The Party’s National Secretariat, Wadata Plaza, as well as Legacy House, Maitama, have been unsealed by the Nigeria Police Force and handed over to the National Chairman, and Senator Samuel Anyanwu, in full compliance with duly issued court orders.
“The party commends the Nigeria Police Force for its professionalism and adherence to the rule of law. This action is a clear demonstration of respect for constitutional order and due process,” Jungudo stated.
But it also issued a firm warning, highlighting how quickly tensions could flare again.
“The Party strongly warns that it will not condone any act capable of causing obstruction, disruption, or breach of peace at the secretariat again,” the party spokesman added, noting that security agencies had been alerted to act against violators.
The PDP said the development should reassure members that the crisis had been resolved, urging aggrieved factions to close ranks.
“This positive development reassures members that the recent challenges confronting the Party have been effectively resolved. We therefore call on all aggrieved members to sheath their swords and embrace unity in the collective interest of the Party,” Jungudo added he also acknowledged the role of party leaders and stakeholders during the crisis, singling out a key figure for support
