Wike Trying To Destroy Our Great Party, Expel Him Now – Ned Nwoko To PDP
A former House of Representatives member, Ned Nwoko, has called on the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, to expel Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State from the party, following his grievance with the party’s presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar.
Nwoko accused Wike of trying to destroy the PDP because he out-spent Atiku and other aspirants during the party’s presidential primaries.
The constitutional lawyer wondered if Wike would have campaigned against Atiku if he had been picked as the party’s presidential running mate.
Wike has been at loggerheads with the PDP leadership after he lost at the party’s presidential primaries.
While accepting Atiku as PDP’s presidential candidate, Wike, however, called for the removal of Iyorchia Ayu as the party’s National Chairman.
Wike and his G-5 group have been agitating for a Southerner to occupy the position of National Chairman.
He stressed that a particular region can’t produce the PDP’s National Chairman and the presidential candidate.
However, Nwoko said Wike must not be allowed to destroy the former ruling party, stressing that the governor was fighting a selfish and personal interest.
