So Dino Melayi was a fake PDP member when he made those statements concerning Wike trying to be a vice to Atiku.
Wike is the architect and mastermind of the collapse of PDP from 2023 till date.
When Makinde made his own statement against Wike in one of their meetings with the president, was he also a fake PDP member?
The truth is that Wike wanted to be president of Nigeria by all means. He thought the money he acquired from Rivers state would catapult him to the presidency but he failed woefully to Atiku during the primaries and he decided to scatter the party when he was also denied the vice president slot. He is sour loser. Wike is only fighting for his personal interest and the presidency seat is going to be far from him.

The same labour party him and Tinubu are manipulating to frustrate him only to step aside immediately he joined the ADC or another one?

When you see criminal liars, you don't need to look anywhere. APC and her cronies are dubious lots

You people are just bunch of coward, you dey fight with your age mate, you dey run con dey say people are chairing him up too much... Do you think Politics is like your family meeting... Stop shifting blames to others so if your wife begin to give you attitude at home now you no fit stop am abi just because someone they instigate am from outside If you know you cant face the heat you don't visit blacksmith

They left the party for you so that you can conduct market square type National conversation. I hope you are happy with only 78 members at your national convention

Agulu Obi changes party every four years.
Very dumb and inconsistent man.

He go contest tire!

It’s a shame that a single man was allowed to destroy the institution of a party known as PDP.

It’s a shame Wike was allowed to destroy PDP.

PDP, a party that ushered this democratic dispensation that we all enjoy of which APC is a beneficiary.

PDP nurtured democracy in Nigeria.
I feel so ashamed to be a citizen of this country.
If we can allow a single man destroy an institution then we are all doomed.

As for Wike, posterity will judge you.

Shame on this country and its leaders. Shame on Wike and his cohorts.

Tinubu is the one that destroyed PDP using federal might and institutions like the judiciary and not Wike. Wike has no power of his own, he's just an overrated talkative. The little power he displays come from the real person benefiting from the collapse of opposition parties and we know that person who knows that as the worst president Nigeria has ever produced he stands no chance in the upcoming election that's why he's using pple like Wike to bring down those he sees as oppositions, so as to rig and win as always.

They left pdp for you to eat.

brain54:
I already told you to read or check why he did that in the post you quoted...


Didn't I?

How can you say he's consistent yet justify his inconsistency

Consistency is not done when convenient. Besides, he never had any deal with Atiku as you claimed. He only used the leverage he had to scatter the party and I don't see how that's Consistency

Wike has always been making idiotic comments.

brain54:
Nobody left because of fraud or manipulation...

People left because they were looking for convenient and easier routes and platforms by which they could contest, win and have better political gains or political career advancement.

Wike is consistent. He has always stuck to his position. And has remained with the pdp through thick and thin. Even when he has the chance to decamp to the APC.

You can also check out or read about the reasons he did what he did to the pdp

Wike's brand of politics is crude and like I said you can either love or hate him for how he operates. But they are certain things you can never take away from him and one of those things is his consistency!

People left because they got special palliatives from the $84 billion saved by city boy to hike petrol price instead of crashing it as promised.

No need for long stories.

"I know of States that have received over 500 billion Naira from the Federal Government as palliative, but I have never received anything.

I think the reason I don't get it is because I'm not in APC.

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.


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.

No room for Wike, Fayose in PDP again —Sheriff

Also reacting to the judgment, its apparent beneficiary, Senator Sheriff, vowed to put in place a machinery that would not give room to people like Governors Nyesom Wike and Ayodele Fayose of Rivers and Ekiti states, respectively in any future arrangement in the party.

“I will engineer a restructuring of PDP such that characters like Wike and Fayose cannot find a way through to attain any position of prominence in our party in the future. They have brought shame and agony through the application of their crude and godless politics which is at variance with the principles upon which our founding fathers built our great party.

“We must find a way to sieve things so that only men of character and integrity can come through for positions of responsibility at all levels of our political engagement in the country.

“We must urgently steer the ship of PDP clear of the path of infamy which Wike and Fayose has brought our party, making Nigerians to mistaken PDP as a training ground for thugs. That is the urgent task we have. We cannot continue to advertise thug brand and expect Nigerians to take us seriously,” he said.

Comments like this portrays Obi incapable of looking after his house.

It may be a greater portrayal of city boy as a pretentious democrat who is nothing but a scheming dictator, with people like Pat Utomi helping further his destructive agenda.

It's quite ironic that party-hopping and confused Utomi was ADC's first presidential candidate in 2007.

lexylaw40:
The “president-elect” saw in Obi's presidential bid, a good chance to reduce the winning chances of the presidential candidate of the PDP, Atiku Abubakar.

The governorship candidate of the Labour Party (LP) in Oyo State, Tawfiq Akinwale, [/b]on Wednesday [b]stated that the “President-elect” Bola Tinubu asked popular economist, Prof Pat Utomi to step down for Peter Obi in the buildup to the 2023 general elections.

Akinwale made this revelation while he appeared as a guest on a radio programme on 101.7 YES FM, Ibadan, Oyo State, while alleging that Obi received campaign funds from Utomi, whom he described as Tinubu's "son."

The LP aspirant, who spoke in Yoruba language, said "In the buildup to the 2023 elections, Obi who had purchased the nomination form of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), suddenly announced his exit from the party.

"Initially, Pat Utomi had secured the LP's presidential ticket, but when Peter Obi said he resigned from the PDP and joined the LP. Bola Tinubu, a master political strategist, quickly told Utomi, that everyone knows to be his son to step down for Obi.

"The “president-elect” saw in Obi's presidential bid, a good chance to reduce the winning chances of the presidential candidate of the PDP, Atiku Abubakar.

"What Peter Obi didn't know is much more that what he knows, he started collecting campaign funds from Utomi, while Tinubu was giving the money to Utomi.

"This went on until Obi's presidential campaign got to a stage it went beyond target. Obi was used without him knowing," Akinwale said after announcing his departure from the party.

Obi defected to the LP after resigning his membership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and also withdrawing from the presidential race under the party.

The former governor consequently joined the race for the party’s presidential ticket, while Professor Pat Utomi, in June 2022 stepped down for him to emerge as the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, LP, unopposed in Asaba, Delta State.

All of them are the same. Atiku wanted to become president in 2023, same as Obi. Only Obi and Wike are supposed to battle it out during the primaries based on rotational agreement between the North and the South. So in my own view, Atiku didn't respect the agreement reached due to his mentality of becoming president and the issue of party executives then.

What is consistent about a drunk ranting about having Dutch courage?

The crisis he created deliberately to weaken the opposition for Tinubu so they can remain in power to loot the resources of the country. That he infiltrated the judges using his corrupt wife to get favourable judgements is now being truthful?


The chicken will come home to roost one evening. Ask El Rufai, Malami or Emefiele about the transience of power

If you understood what happened to Osibanjo during the primaries in APC , where he was Interviewed and he said he came with Naira to meet the delegates but he shouted when he saw the dollars given to delegates ...and he had to withdraw ...

Now relate this to Peter Obi, and relate it to the what is happening in Labour party now after Peter Obi left....

See, there are issues you can never solve as a man in your life as far as people around you have been bought and sealed out ....

Ok, today as we speak, all those both Apapa and co, they have all dissolved to neutrality in Labour Party, why? Because Peter Obi has left the party...

So why is the internal crisis still not persisting

Why are they at peace now

You can only resolve what you can handle and the only way is Dollars .....

And one man has already said ...(what money can't do, more money will do it )

Is it the kind of person you will come and begin to throw money around to get the people he has bought their souls

Peter Obi can't begin to spend dollars anyhow when he knows the importance and he worked hard transparently to earn the money and he doesn't decide who becomes Governor in Anambra State even though he is from Anambra State than someone who left his State to be deciding what happens in another State while his State is a pity to Nigeria yet he is sharing dollars up and down...

So in Summary, I don't want to buy the idea that Peter Obi jumping like a monkey as you said from one party to another is a criteria that he can't handle Nigerian Problems .....

That's a childish thinking and a propaganda at its peak , if Peter Obi becomes the President, he is directly taking care of things and any internal crisis , he will have the capacity to face it squarely...

Calm down you talk about Osinbajo when he sees Dollar changing hand.... Please tell me another person that is accepted into the same Labour Party than HE Obi If he run because of Dollar change hand.... He wouldnt have join this present party because we all know the people in the same party call ADC is more like your are running from ekuke (local Dog) and now lock yourself up where hyena is... Your math is not mathin at all.... Everyone have their opinion and liberty... Excersice it the way you think it will pay you bro.... Where I dey for Ijebu here many people do call me bastard tire but I have to rethink the person I dey defend can he prove them wrong capital No... Yes he run away from PDP because some people will outspend him... What happen in Labour Party? Just shut the two people up with little money and position if elected... That's how the game is thats where you get enough support... Make sure you put off the fire not to run... He run from APGA is it the same big spender, He join PDP and run away again let say because of big spender but is there any opposition for him at Labour Party except the party leadership wahala?

ApGA never had any National value although since it is smelled as Igbo party, so it must be dropped at the national realms ....thus you don't expect him to still carry the flag,he ha left it for his younger brother in Politics, Soludo and co....
Am happy you said he could have given them money, seems like you don't understand the people you are dealing with

Any moment Peter Obi offers money to those Labour party leaders, they will still run to their slave master and whisper that they have found something to hold Peter Obi with , that he who said doesn't give shishi is now bribing them, and from there it will be all over the news that he now bribes them with stolen money he got from Anambra State....

Well,when I looked at how President Jonathan became President, I will only say that God is the ultimate...

Any day Peter Obi is invited to EFCC or ICPC for money laundering or ownership of properties when he was Governor for good Eight years in Anambra State, that's when I will stop supporting him and hands down because it means that all of them are now criminals but for now,one person has no case to answer anywhere....
Come let's support this one man that has not defiled his Integrity and Character because of the post of a Minister or promise of a Presidency.... Kwankwaso is another man I know who has such file.....
