The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has extended its governorship primary in Anambra State from April 5 to April 8.
The PDP chairman in the state, Chidi Chidebe, confirmed the development to newsmen in Awka on Saturday.
The primary will produce the party’s candidate for the November 8 governorship election.
Chidebe said the National Secretariat approved the postponement to complete necessary administrative processes and ensure a smooth exercise.
He described PDP as the most peaceful party in Anambra, ready to contest united and prepared.
“Our primary election will now hold on Tuesday, April 8.
“With the confusion in other parties, it’s clear that PDP is not the problem,”; he said.
He, therefore, called on members to prioritise public and party interests over personal ambitions.
