Chief Bode George, a chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has said the party is ready to take tough decisions against members who no longer follow its rules.

Speaking during an interview on Channels Television’s Sunday Politics, the elder statesman said the PDP’s National Executive Council (NEC) would meet on May 27 to address the ongoing internal crisis. One of the expected outcomes, he noted, could be the expulsion of disloyal members.

According to George, some PDP members have shown more interest in personal gain than in serving the people, adding that such behaviour is against the founding principles of the party.

“As politicians, is it only for their own personal gain that they are looking at? What about the impact?
What is democracy? It’s all about the management of the resources of the land for the benefit of the people. That is not what they have done now.”

He added that in the upcoming NEC meeting, key decisions would be made.

“And I am hoping that by the 27th of this month we will meet in a closed door and tell ourselves some home truths.
Those who cannot abide by the rules and regulations of the party, we can throw them out of the party.
The NEC has the authority and the powers to do that. We should tell ourselves some serious home truths, and come back to the position as laid down by the founding fathers of our party.”

The PDP has been struggling with internal conflicts since the 2023 elections. Instead of presenting a strong opposition to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), the party has been dealing with in-fighting and disloyalty from within.

Some PDP members have openly backed President Bola Tinubu of the ruling APC. One of them is the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory and former Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, who recently said he will stay in the PDP while supporting Tinubu’s 2027 re-election.

This has sparked criticism from members, who accuse the party leadership of ignoring acts of disloyalty.

Wike should be number 1. But I think he has paid his dues to remain untouchable in the party. Who kept the party after their loss in 2015?

Wike should be top on the list

You are very biased, wike is the one doing anti party, you can't be in a party and still work against the party and he decleared openly he will support Tinubu against his party candidate. You are talking about 2015, we are here talking about 2025, most of guys are political neophyte and you always brings your bitterness and hatred politics

Wike comes to mind lol

The PDP constitution is in favour of Wike when it comes to suspension/expelling... His suspension must come from his ward, and you know that he is in control of his ward, lga,state and even SS region excos.

PDP should expel Wike, NTHING will happen.

We are in May already

Okay oh
