Former National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Uche Secondus, has accused the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike, of trying to create a supremacy battle between him and former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar and make himself relevant before President Bola Tinubu.
He, however, noted that the president is “already getting fed up with his nuisance of bringing politics into the governance of the FCT.”
Secondus made this known in a statement issued by his spokesman, Ike Abonyi, ahead of PDP’s 98th National Executive Committee, (NEC) meeting billed for Thursday in Abuja.
According to the ex-chairman, Wike is trying hard to create a non-existent crisis in the major opposition party
He challenged PDP’s NEC, BoT, National Caucus, forum of Governors, Chairmen of states and National Assembly caucus to rise up and challenge the former Rivers State governor.
Speaking via the statement Secondus said the FCT minister was ”deviously trying to create the impression that he is in a tussle of supremacy with the 2023 Presidential candidate of the party and former Vice President Atiku Abubakar Wike who is copiously losing political relevance everywhere from Rivers to Abuja is trying to give the impression that he is a factor in PDP and holding it for his APC interest.”
He added: “The critical structures of this party, NEC, BoT, National Caucus, forum of Governors, Chairmen of states and National Assembly caucus of the party must rise to the challenge and isolate mischief makers and meddlers like Wike and move the party forward.”
