Enough is enough, PDP must axe Wike now – Ray Nnaji

Former National Auditor of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Bar. Ray Nnaji, has criticized the party for its prolonged tolerance of FCT Minister Nyesom Wike.

He said this leniency has worsened the party’s current crisis, IDOMA VOICE reports. 

In an exclusive interview with Daily Post, Nnaji expressed frustration with the PDP’s delayed response to internal leadership issues, particularly the slow replacement of former National Chairman Iyorchia Ayu.

His comments come amid Wike’s recent public challenges to PDP leaders and threats against PDP-controlled states.

His words: “No right member of the PDP will commend what’s happening in the party.

“I don’t see Wike being in APC and the PDP at the same time. It’s the soul of Rivers State they are pursuing for the purposes of 2027.

“You know quite well that Wike used his power as a former governor to make sure that APC was assisted to come to power, that was why he was compensated with a ministerial appointment.

“He (Wike) wanted to pull the structure he had then into the APC. That explains why the APC dissolved its Rivers state executives, which prompted the members to go to the court.

“Wike himself, and those 25 State House of Assembly members who defected, when they found out that others weren’t following them, the problem in the state started.

“The main fact is that the acting Chairman failed to do what he ought to do. It cannot be blamed on the acting Chairman alone, it should be blamed on the Party entirely because the constitution is very clear.

“When a vacancy exists, what do you do? Of course, the constitution provided answers to all those things, but they failed to do it.
