It follows without equivocation that the congresses were also conducted before the expiration of 30 days after thr submission of register of members of the party in the state to INEC. The People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in Enugu State thereafter began the conduct of its congresses, culminating in its gubernatorial primary on 25th May, 2022.
