The immediate past Governor of Rivers State and Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike has renewed his attacks against fellow members of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, loyal it’s Presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar.
This time, Wike is requesting that the party’s National Working Committee expel members including Senator Waziri Tambuwal, Atiku, and the former director general of the PDP Presidential Campaign.
Wike made the call in an interview on a Channels Television political programme, Politic Today, which was monitored by Africa Today News, New York on Thursday.
He also dismissed former PDP presidential aspirant, Dele Momodu, as politically irrelevant noting that Momodu can’t win an election in his local government area.

The former Rivers State Governor also used the opportunity to commend the Justices of the Presidential Election Petition Court for a job well done.
According to him, the judgment which affirmed President Bola Tinubu victory was profound as it was based on sound judgment in terms of technicality and practicality.
In response to a question on the subject, Wike said, The will of the people is determined through the ballot box. How could PDP have won the election when you consider the mood of the nation at that time?
‘Look at the areas that the PDP did not win because of high-handedness, because of greed because of impunity. If the PDP had done what they were supposed to do, then you could have talked about that.
‘There should be equity, there should be justice, there should be fairness and that is why I am calling on the National Working Committee they should suspend the presidential candidate, suspend people like Aminu Tambuwal so that they can rebuild the party (PDP).’
Meanwhile, Africa Today News, New York reports that there has been no official response from the PDP leadership.
