Dele Momodu, a chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Wednesday said the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, has a huge ambition to control the two most prominent Political Parties in Nigeria – All Progressives Congress, APC, and Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.
Funds, according to Momodu, is not a problem for Wike as he has obscene resources available to him which only a few politicians can resist.
Wike is the immediate past Governor of Rivers State.
Momodu, a veteran journalist, disclosed this in response to a post by an X user who criticised PDP for not being able to discipline Wike.
The X user, TENIBEGILOJU202, expressed disappointment in the PDP for not being able to put Wike he belongs.
He posted: “PDP is the most useless party in the world! Rather than take a bold step on Wike, they sent PDP governors to beg him! I am beginning to think dat there is big secret that Wike has against PDP leaders dat made him untouchable. @BwalaDaniel @DeleMomodu you don’t belong in dat party.”
In response Momodu posted on X:
“When a tsetse fly perches piercingly on your testicle, you require all the skills and wisdom to get rid of it. The extraordinary resources available to NYESOM WIKE, courtesy of PDP, ironically, are so humongous, and irresistible to most Nigerian politicians, the reason he wants to be king in two political parties, simultaneously!!”
As a PDP member and Governor of Rivers State, Wike worked against the party during the 2023 presidential election.
He divided the PDP, and led a faction of four State Governors- G-5 group- who worked against the Party’s Presidential Candidate, Atiku Abubakar, for the victory of President Bola Tinubu of the APC in the February 25 Presidential election.
Tinubu paid Wike off by appointing him to the high profile office of the Minister for the FCT.
He still mouths his membership of the PDP. And the Party has been unable to raise a voice against him.
