The meeting follows the disqualification of candidates in the Annual Delegates Meeting elections, a development that has sparked opposition from state chairmen, caucuses, and the Committee of Past Presidents.
In a statement issued by Dr. Oreyemi Ifedayo, Chairman of States Chairmen of the association, the emergency meeting was described as a last resort after efforts to resolve the dispute reportedly failed.
According to him, the Committee of Past Presidents had called for the reversal of the disqualifications to ensure fairness and a level playing field in the election process.
He expressed concern that ignoring those interventions could trigger instability within the association.
Delegates are expected to deliberate on the crisis and seek a path toward restoring peace and order in the NMA.
The development sets the stage for a potential leadership showdown within one of Nigeria’s most influential professional bodies.
