During a media parley, Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) and a leader in the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), reportedly warned that bringing Peter Obi back into the PDP would “destroy the party.”
While the exact quote and context of this recent statement are not fully available in the search results, Wike has been a vocal critic of Peter Obi’s departure from the PDP and his subsequent presidential run with the Labour Party.
Wike has previously stated that Obi’s decision to leave the PDP and contest under another platform was a major factor in the party’s loss in the 2023 presidential election.
Wike has also expressed doubts about Obi’s political viability and has even claimed that Obi can “never be president again.”
Wike’s comments are part of a larger ongoing discussion within Nigerian political circles about the future of the PDP and its strategy for the 2027 presidential election.
His remarks reflect his long-standing position that Obi’s actions have damaged the PDP and that his return would be detrimental rather than beneficial.
