Reports say the protesters are demanding that Secondus continues as the National Chairman of the party.
Recall that on Monday a Rivers State High Court in Degema Local Government Area restrained Secondus, from acting as the party’s National Chairman.
Meanwhile, the National Working Committee of the Peoples Democratic Party went ahead with its meeting and fixed the National Executive Committee meeting of the party for Friday this week.
The Deputy National Chairman (South) of the party, Yemi Akinwonmi, had announced the postponement of the NWC meeting earlier scheduled for yesterday until further notice to allow for broader consultations in the overall interest of the party.
Akinwonmi had announced a takeover of the reins of the party following a restraining order on the National Chairman, Uche Secondus.
However, Nine members of the National Working Committee of the party under the leadership of the Deputy National Chairman (North), Senator Suleiman Nazif, in defiance of an earlier announcement by Akinwonmi, held a meeting and announced that an emergency National Executive Committee meeting of the party would hold on Friday.
