Wike to PDP govs: sidelining me will bury party

Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has said with the way the present governors of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) are going, they will bury the party.

Speaking during a session with journalists in Abuja, on Friday, Wike insinuated that governors elected on the platform of the party were not handling the crisis rocking the PDP well.

African  Journalist reports that PDP governors are currently locked in a fierce battle with the FCT Minister, who twice served as governor under the party.

While the governors are putting all together for the party’s convention slated for next month in Ibadan, Oyo State capital, Wike’s camp is said to be working towards scuttling it.

Samuel Anyanwu, National Secretary of the party, recently accused the National Working Committee (NWC) of the party of forging his signature in its notice to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) for the convention.

But the party stakeholders accused Anyanwu of acting a script of the pro-Wike camp.

In his chat with journalists on Friday, Wike spoke about the PDP crisis.

“Have I not said before now that the booby trap you are setting will consume you? Have I not told you before now, the way these present governors are doing, they will bury this party?”

“Are you telling me that because I’m not a governor, you go and hold PDP meetings, call them stakeholders, and then exclude me, and you want to survive? Certainly not,” he said.

Wike also distanced himself from the stakeholders who endorsed former Minister of Special Duties, Tanimu Turaki, as the next chairman of the party.

“I don’t know about Tanimu Turaki becoming chairman. Maybe he’s becoming chairman for another faction. It’s not the PDP I know,” he said.

On the defections rocking the party, Wike said he foresaw the situation long before it started happening.

“Right from day one, I’ve said it that with what is going on, if it continues to go on, PDP will continue to lose. Things are not done properly and we will regret it. And that’s what it’s today.

“It’s very embarrassing. One of the governors was the chairman of the convention committee. It’s very embarrassing. Even though I know they were all playing games. I said it from the beginning. There’s nothing I said that haven’t come to pass.”
