A factional chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in Rivers State, Robinson Ewor, says the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike, is working to destroy the opposition from within.
He said Wike should no longer be considered a member of the PDP, having openly pledged loyalty to the All Progressives Congress, APC.
Ewor stated this on Monday during an interview on ‘The Morning Show,’ a programme aired by Arise Television.
“I have said it in different fora, and I will repeat it here: Nyesom Wike, FCT minister, is no longer a member of the PDP.
“Nyesom Wike today exists in PDP because he’s on a mission to destroy the PDP, to destroy the opposition in the country, not just Rivers state,” he said.
The Rivers State PDP factional chairman accused Wike of interfering in PDP leadership decisions while serving in an APC-led federal government.
“That is why today he is insisting that Sam Anyanwu remains national secretary. What is his business? You are serving an APC government.
“You have pledged your loyalty to the APC. You have said it openly and publicly that you will support the APC in the 2027 general election,” he added.
According to him, Wike has no business meddling in PDP matters, describing his continued presence in the party as a calculated ploy.
Wike on Friday said he wanted the outright removal of Siminalayi Fubara as governor of Rivers state.
