Secondus to PDP: Don't fall for Wike's gimmick, using you to remain relevant with Tinubu


Former National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Prince Uche Secondus has sent out an advisory to PDP leaders assembling for the party's 98th NEC meeting tomorrow to do everything humanly possible and within the law to rescue and restore the party’s glory.

Speaking ahead of the party’s long-awaited National Executive Committee, NEC meeting tomorrow, Secondus said the former Governor Neysom Wike’s busybodying gimmick should not distract them as the drowning Minister of FCT, was trying hard to create a non-existent crisis in the party to make himself relevant before his boss President Bola Ahmed Tinubu who is already getting fed up with his nuisance of bringing politics into the governance of the FCT.

By deviously trying to create the impression that he is in a tussle of supremacy with the 2023 Presidential Candidate of the party and former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, Wike who is copiously losing political relevance everywhere from Rivers to Abuja is trying to give the impression that he is a factor in PDP and holding it for his APC interest.

‘The critical structures of this party, NEC, BOT, National Caucus, forum of Governors, Chairmen of states and National Assembly caucus of the party must rise to the challenge and isolate mischief makers and meddlers like Wike and move the party forward.

Secondus, then charged the party leaders not to fall into Wike’s trick by giving him undeserved relevance which he no longer possesses. 

"I expect the founding fathers and other dedicated members to rise to the challenge and return this great party to its glory by ensuring as they always do at critical moments that nobody or group is greater or bigger than this party," he further said in a statement signed by his Media Adviser, Mr Ike Abonyi.
