You guys think the decamping happening in PDP is at Wikes disadvantage...

This is exactly what his job description is with the APC

This comment of your's OBVIOUSLY shows that you don't understand the game of politics .

Wike has been able to plot his game in such a way that he doesn't need to be a member of APC to be relevant in an APC government. Those migrating to APC are seeking relevance.
wike has no hold except in river state from the look of things even the FCT metropolis don’t rate him that high. So just chill

To be honest with you, your boasting is of no value because you wrote about the 2027 election but here is a president who could change the date of the election to 2026 October if he wants and once his game plan is completed. It's like you boasting before God that you won't pay the tithe of your harvest next year but God laughs and says, ok now, there won't be rain nor water next year. What the dickens are you going to do, little man?

It's obvious that the PDP governors have all outplayed Wike. By decamping to the APC, they have neutralised his perceived hold on the party while leaving him with little to no leverage in his bargain with Tinubu. Even if Wike decamps to the APC today, he would take his place behind other leaders like Akpabio, Oshiomhole, even governor Sheriff in the Southsouth.
He would decamp after Tinubu is reelected and will control rivers and bayelsa APC

When I hear people complain of Wike having destroyed the PDP and therefore decided to leave the party for him, I shake my head in disbelief.

Instead of laying the blame at the doorstep of the party for allowing a single individual to "destroy" their party and for being too weak to suspend or outrightly expel him, sounds funny and an admittance of failure of the party as an entity.

Most people are not taking into account the role of Atiku in the crisis that rocked the party from the beginning.

Atiku, as a Northern candidate, also insisted on having the secretary of the party to equally come from the North.

Again, he (Atiku) refused to accept zoning the presidential ticket to the South and bulldozed his way to becoming the PDP flag bearer in the 2023 presidential election.

Wike would have none of that and did everything to sabotage Atiku which equally affected the fortunes of the party as a whole.

The PDP therefore dug its own grave for failing to act when it mattered most.

The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike, has described as very embarrassing the resignation of Bayelsa State governor, Douye Diri, from the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.

Recall that the governor was chairing the PDP zoning committee for the elective national convention, scheduled for November 15 and 16, when he quit the party.

Speaking during a media chat on Friday in Abuja, Wike said Diri’s decision to leave the PDP was disappointing.

“It is very embarrassing. The governor was the chairman of the convention committee. Diri was the chairman of the zoning committee. Even though I knew from the beginning that they were all playing games,” he said.

Nigeria is governed and seeks to be governed by men and women without principles. Anywhere belle face. Hungry men and women looking for bread. Tinubu for now holds enough bread to control them all.

Chill You are overating Tpain. Is it not same Tpain who couldn't deliver even 30% vote for his candidate Ribadu in his very own Lagos? His performance was one of the worst in States his ACN had structure. Minus the North he is nothing,he goes nowhere if they say No to his terrible, incompetent worse govt Nigeria has ever seen since inception bcus he has no place in the hearts of the Southerners even his kinsmen in Iragbiji will choose death 70x than vote for such a complete total Disaster called Tpain again.

If the COALITION stands at the polls,it's game over for the greatest curse and calamity to befall Nigeria called Tpain with his evil demonic terrorist group posing as a govt.

It's 12m votes for ADC already.

Wike is doing the exact job tinubu Sent him and even more.....if not for wikes sabotaging politics,it wouldn't have been easy ir so convenient for those govs to move.....he is still far more loyal and more highly respected by tinubu than those govs u mentioned......he was the one who was most courageous and stood his ground for tinubu when it mattered most not caring the expediency or the lack of it when he openly supported tinubu......those govs you mentioned are only just coming in when the soup is already done,just for them to come savour and bask in the euphoria of affiliating with the president.....if you were tinubu,who would you choose? Wike was among those that made tinubu president and not any of those govs you mentioned.

How many people can Tinubu eventually handover tickets to? He's obviously prioritising decampees over long-term loyalists. All the erstwhile members of APC in Enugu have decamped to the ADC and these are just early days. In the end, the old members will work against the party while the supporters of the new party are still not totally convinced to work for Tinubu. There will be internal sabotage from those who will not be bold enough to decamp.
How many votes were they able to give tinubu in 23,speaking about the Enugu members decamping to APC......mbah against all odds stood against the obi tsunami and won... He proved his influence by moving with all his appointees and the entire pdp structure in his state . That's a big acquisition for the APC and a huge blow to the opposition.....let them move to adc,they won't be missed.....

The world evolves by the passing of the minute and if you're stuck and don't bother evolving, you will sure be left behind.
Don't mind them....amaechi benefitted immensely from allying with APC.....he only lost at the primaries because he didn't play his cards right and was over ambitious.....he infact created the opportunity for wike to sneak in and warm himself to the president.....wike still has rivers under his grip,he is a minister with independent allocations.....wike played his cards right, amaechi didn't.

Tinubu is not, from available records, a use and dump politician. Truth, actually, is that he empowers his associates to the point that they can challenge him when greed overtakes and envelopes them. Iregbesola is an example.

@hotseat
Atiku did not force himself on the PDP neither did he violate any PDP Primaries rules. The delegates from various states gave him their votes willingly. No one seems to be pointing out the role of the PDP delegates who for whatsoever reasons preferred Atiku.

So blaming Atiku for contesting and being voted for as the 2023 PDP presidential flagbearer is unfair.

He didn't rig the Primaries, the PDP delegates voted for him. Blame the delegates who perhaps for financial incentives preferred him.

Also do not forget the roles Iyorchia Ayu the then PDP chairman (now in oblivion and incommunicado) played.
