The Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Governors Forum, Governor Bala Mohammed of Bauchi State, has revealed why the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has not been suspended from the opposition party.
Naija News reports that there have been calls by some chieftains of the PDP for the suspension and expulsion of Wike for working against the party’s presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, in the 2023 general election.
Wike is also at loggerheads with the Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, which has led to a division in the PDP’s National Working Committee (NWC).
Speaking to Daily Trust on why the party’s Board of Trustees have not take action against Wike, Mohammed said: “You can’t suspend him without the involvement of the NWC. We are influential as governors, but the BoT is only an advisory body, not a decision-making one. That’s why we are working on resolving this issue, not because we are against Wike.
“If Wike had officially joined the APC, I would still support his return to the PDP because he’s a friend. After all, many others have left the PDP and returned to hold significant positions.”
