Wike missing as PDP begins NEC meeting in Abuja

The National Executive Council (NEC) meeting of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has kicked off in Abuja.

Notably absent at the onset of the meeting held at the PDP’s national secretariat in Abuja was the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike.

Among those present are Atiku Abubakar, the former vice president and PDP’s presidential candidate for the 2023 elections, along with another former vice president, Namadi Sambo. Also in attendance are governors who are either currently serving or have previously served under the party.

It’s noteworthy that both Atiku and Wike participated in the party’s national caucus meeting held yesterday at the Bauchi governor’s lodge in the Asokoro district of Abuja.
