The only PDP state in South South is Wike state, APC as taken over other state, Bayelsa, cross river, delta, Akwa Ibom and Edo are all APC state, PDP should know how to manage Wike better than loosing the River state to APC again. Fubara boycott the event shows Wike is in control of River state.

Rivers is already lost to APC since emergency rule kicked in... Fubara is only but a coward but its okay, we understand. In fullness of time, everything will balance but for Wike to remain in PDP is cancerous. Fubara can go join if he wants to. Afterall, he has no balls.

Why was Atikus Name and his other ADC members not included ?
So sad, PDP is DEAD.
All suspended member now form a parallel party. And litigation continues in a pre election season.
As it stands today .. PdP held a " Convention" which inec cant deny they were not duely "invited" ... if inec chose not to come despite court ruling compelling Inec to be on ground ...then inec has no grounds to nullify the convention

Bode George is one of the Founding fathers of PDP, and he has proven his loyalty to the party, call it embrassment or whatever you like nobody can be bigger than a Party ....

Atiku already defected to ADC, and some others, no point expelling people that have already left, get $en$e

You can say Pdp is dead or whatever you like, But the biggest comeback of PDP is successfully holding a convention to the shame of Wike nd Tinubu and people like you ... there biggest turn around was yesterday good riddance to Wike nd his children

If expelled members like let them form Parallel govt,. who cares ... as long as they remain ejected for life, pdp can restructure itself

Fintri to me is also among those against the interest of the party. He should disclose openly he is working for the ruling party through Wike.

Imagine, how can a sane person doesn't see something wrong with activities of Wike and his gangs.

I pity all those still supporting those kind of people..

When you have 6 or so governors, two becomes a big number, and for the record, it's only when it's one that you can't use that word, from two it's very correct grammatical that is.

You didn't answer the simple question I asked.
Since Wike is a political god, shouldn't u be happy that he'd be joining the APC freely and win all the South South votes for u guys in 2027?

Whether the PDP is able to field candidates in 2027 shouldn't be ur headache. That should be on the PDP.

What you guys should be doing now is counting your chickens, considering a potential Wike switch. Your party should be stronger now and invincible with Wike potentially joining.

Or is there something I'm missing?

Oyo state governor decided to waste tax payers money just to organize end of the year party to some people.
Is that how Tinubu has been wasting taxpayers money on year end party to buy votes for Buhari to be president after calling him expired huh

Money that should employ Lagosians and pay them well to make water available for everyone?

NaijaRoyalty:
…Says Buhari doesn’t have my kind of money

However, Buhari doesn’t have the kind of money I can steal neither does he have the money I can collect. He doesn’t even have the money for Lagos votes. So, whatever I promise, it’s for real and is coming from my pocket. It’s not until I go to Alausa before I get money to give you.”

Addressing APC supporters on the need to deliver votes, Tinubu said handsome cash rewards await those who can deliver votes for the party.

He said he would not make mistakes of the past where people would collect money in advance and not deliver on election day.

Tinubu added, “Those of you that say you come to Bourdillon for mobilisation, it is mobilisation that we are doing here or don’t you understand? Definitely, if you know people in your neighbourhood, our members, how we used to do.

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.

Petrol should never cost more than N70 per litre, says APC

January 19, 2015

The All Progressives Congress (APC) has described as mere tokenism the reduction of petrol price from N97 to N87 per litre, saying the petroleum product ordinarily should sell for N70.

On Sunday, the federal government announced the reduction of petrol price, citing the fall of global crude oil price.

But the APC through Lai Mohammed, its spokesman, on Monday accused the government of making a show out of deceit, saying “a 10.3 per cent slash in the price of petrol was a mere tokenism at a time the price of crude oil has crashed by about 60 per cent”.

It argued that the pump price of a litre of petrol should not be more than 70 Naira, alleging that at N87 per litre, the government was forcing Nigerians to subsidise the massive corruption in the oil sector by N17 for every litre of fuel.

Buhari’ll reduce petrol to N40/L —David-West

FORMER Minister of Petroleum and Energy, Prof. Tamunoemi David-West, said that Nigerians should expect sharp drop in petrol price from the current N87 to about N40 per litre, saying, “the president-elect, Gen. Mohammed Buhari, will reduce the fuel pump price to N40 per litre.”

forget d lobbying news... Wike fayose and others have been shouting before d primaries, that the election should be a Southern affair... That it won't be fair for a Northerner to take over from another northerner.... The same issue made pdp/Jonathan lose d presidency and everything was orchestrated by Atiku.....
Now Atiku had his way won d primaries and wike camp went to Atiku, you've won, nominate wike as your vice.... To bring peace, Atiku refused and picked the delta governor... That same month tinubu sent delegates to wike... Now who is the biggest winner in all of dis scenario, definitely wike.... Atiku is no longer in pdp, he'll run in d next election and lose again..... Wike is still young and has a better chance of becoming president.... Wike is in pdp working for APC, if you expel him, he'll carry all d governors loyal to him to APC... So who is losing again
