People said atiku was the problem of pdp, atiku has left and pdp is still in disarray.
Honestly, I want every pdp governor, senator and house of representative to defect to APC since pdp cannot expel wike.
As long as pdp cannot expel wiki for his blatant anti party activities, then pdp deserves to die.
Atiku damaged the party before he left. He held the party hostage for years.

Hmmm. Even if PDP's appeal got a favourable hearing, and conducted the November convention, the possibility of the Supreme Court voiding the so-called convention (done without valid congresses in 14 states) is high!

The outcome of this, is that ALL PDP candidates for the 2027 elections, who, as usual, were selected by delegates from the 'illegal convention', would have their candidacy voided!

PDP is setting itself up for ultimate failure in 2027!

They didn't learn from APC's mistake in Zamfara State, in 2019, when APC won ALL elections (state and federal) but lost ALL, and the party that had a distant 2nd position, PDP, was asked by the court to take over.

Politicians never ever learn from history!

Wike lobbied PDP committee to be Atiku’s running mate – Ex-gov’ship aspirant

Thu, 29 Sep 2022 14:33:04 WAT

Muazu Magaji, a former governorship aspirant of the Peoples Democratic Party in Kano State, has alleged that the Governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Wike, lobbied members of the party’s committee constituted to advise the presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, on the choice of his running mate.

Magaji disclosed this while speaking on Channels TV’s Sunrise Daily, on Thursday.

The Kano politician also argued that there was no proof that Atiku promised Wike the vice president position as claimed.

The PDP committee had recommended the Governor of Delta State, Ifeanyi Okowa; Governor of Akwa Ibom State, Udom Emmanuel and Wike.

The committee, however, scored Wike above the other two contenders but Atiku decided to settle for Okowa. A decision that has since unsettled Wike’s camp.

Magaji, however, claimed that Wike lobbied to be scored ahead of others, adding that the Rivers State governor should not be trusted with important positions in the country.

2023: PDP and politics of healing Wike’s self-inflicted injury

Then, the race began in earnest for three years now, reaching a frenzy with the works of the two PDP committees on zoning. The first was the Gov Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi committee on the zoning of the PDP party offices. The Ugwuanyi committee quickly told the world the committee’s assignment did not cover zoning the office of the president. Though this was true, the question is: why didn’t the Ugwuanyi committee zone the PDP chairmanship to the North without aligning it to the divide that would produce the PDP presidential flag-bearer? The second committee headed by Gov Samuel Ortom of Benue state was specifically on the zoning of the presidential ticket and, with the votes of the representatives of all the 17 Southern states without any exception, the Committee unanimously recommended throwing open the PDP presidential ticket, which the PDP NEC simply upheld.

One thing irrefutably stands out – Wike shot himself in the leg. Here was a man who had an overarching influence on both committees but could not insist that the ticket be zoned South. Many had wondered why? The reason is also relatively in plain sight: the Southeast factor. As the clamour for zoning of the presidential ticket of the PDP to South reached its crescendo, many had pointed out the fact that though the PDP Constitution had prescribed zoning of the office of the president to be between North and South since the South-west and South-south had taken their turns in producing the president and the vice in this current dispensation in the persons of Olusegun Obasanjo and Goodluck Jonathan, zoning this time around, should not just be to the South but the Southeast.

Atiku Abubakar went a step further by offering to step down from the race if it would be agreed that the touted zoning to the South would mean micro-zoning to the Southeast. Wike and the rest could not take the Atiku challenge maybe because Atiku would likely back Peter Obi, who was his vice-presidential running mate in 2019 and an ally. The prospects of Peter Obi picking the ticket if PDP zoned South was so real compelling Wike to go for an open contest, believing he could pick it up ahead of Atiku, Tambuwal and Bala Mohammed, given his large war chest.

Says a man who hijacked the party and singlehandedly produced the last 4 National Chairmen of the party for his own selfishness.

Says a man who accepted nomination to be running mate to Fulani Atiku.
He knew it was injustice to give Atiku the ticket yet he lobbied to be the VP.
grin grin

He knew the party had to go South for the 2023 election, yet he still put Secondus as National Chaiman just to hijack the party..
Only to push Secondus out because he wanted the ticket 2023.


This man remains the biggest problem of PDP.

He can only deceive and fool his minions, not reasonable people.

We have to be holding the judiciaries accountable for every corruption going on. The executive and the legislative bodies alone take the blames while the main body supposed to be independent sits tights and pretend like nothing's happening.
I know surely that one day Nigerians will be free from these blood sucking vampires called judiciaries.
Please stop blaming the judiciary. The judiciary are not left to do their job freely, they are working under heavy influence. We all know the truth, but some people will be blaming the judiciary. If the judiciary are left to work freely, they will do good job.

Tareq1105:
I've said it over and over again that PDP has leadership problems and they keep blaming Tinubu for their ineptitude.

At this time in the history of the party, you suspended these officers when convention is closed by?

And you think they would not go to court to scuttle everything?

Nobody, no leader is respected in PDP. No one can say enough is enough and would be listened to.

All the blames go to Tinubu bcoz he wanted a one party state. Blaming your enemies for your stupidity.

Just watch how the convention would hit the rock and more Govs would find their ways to APC. Damagun leadership has damaged and damagun the party.
.. wike is the one behind all this problems, factions, issues in PDP.. wike said in a media interview that he will lead and support Tinubu reelection in 2027...so with this how do you expect wike to be loyal to PDP ?..
