The Conference of Professionals in the Peoples Democratic Party (CP-PDP) has called for the expulsion of Nyesom Wike, Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), accusing him of undermining the party.
In a statement on Sunday, CP-PDP condemned Wike for endorsing President Bola Tinubu’s 2027 re-election bid and criticizing the PDP’s National Working Committee (NWC).
“Wike has crossed the red line. He is demarketing the party and insulting its leadership,” said Barr. Obinna Nwachukwu, the group’s Protem National Coordinator.
At a recent event, Wike defended his decision to back Tinubu, stating, “Politics is about interest. People must not use and dump others.”
CP-PDP accused Wike of disloyalty, alleging that he has “pitched tents with the APC.” The group urged the NWC to take decisive action, warning that his continued presence could harm the party’s future.
“If the PDP must survive, there is a limit to such behaviour,” the statement added.
The group also threatened to declare Wike persona non grata at party events and pursue legal action against him for allegedly defaming the PDP.
“Our lawyers are compiling materials to approach the court. Wike should desist from further attacks or face consequences,” CP-PDP warned.
