A faction of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) backed by Nyesom Wike, minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), has elected new executive members into its national working committee (NWC).
The elective national convention was held on Sunday at the velodrome of the Moshood Abiola National Stadium in Abuja.
