The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has officially begun the process of addressing allegations of anti-party activities against the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike.
This was revealed by Ibrahim Abdullahi, the PDP’s Deputy National Publicity Secretary, during an interview on Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily program on Monday.
Abdullahi stated that Wike, who is a former Governor of Rivers State, has received a formal letter summoning him to appear before the disciplinary committee.
This committee, chaired by respected party leader Chief Tom Ikimi, was set up by the PDP’s National Working Committee to investigate and resolve issues related to party discipline.
Abdullahi said, “Nyesom Wike is among those summoned by the disciplinary committee, chaired by elder statesman Chief Tom Ikimi. This committee will investigate claims of anti-party activities.
“We have received multiple petitions alleging sabotage against the party throughout the primary process, which have been compiled and forwarded to the committee.”
He mentioned that some party members believe Wike has been given too much freedom by the party leadership.
Commenting on Wike’s recent remarks about “putting fire” in the states of PDP governors to support Rivers State Governor Siminalayi Fubara, Abdullahi criticized the statement.
He described Wike’s comments as “very disappointing and not aligned with our expectations.”
Wike had previously expressed his contentment with his role in Bola Tinubu’s administration, despite facing criticism. He also issued warnings to PDP governors who are supporting Fubara amid his ongoing conflict with the Rivers State governor.
SaharaReporters had earlier reported that, during the PDP Congress in Port Harcourt on Saturday, Wike threatened potential political unrest in the states of any PDP governor who tried to interfere with party matters in the South-South region.
