Wike's attitude is unruly - Dele Momodu

The Director of Strategic Communications for the Atiku/Okowa Presidential Campaign Council, Dele Momodu, has described as unruly the attitude of the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, particularly to the Peoles Democratic Party.

He said he would have sacked him from the party if he had the authority.

Despite his desire to sack Wike from the PDP, Momodu did not object to Wike’s ministerial appointment by President Bola Tinubu of the ruling All Progressives Congress.

Momodu said this while speaking on Channels Television’s ‘Political Paradigm’ programme aired on Tuesday (today).

“I don’t have the power, if I had the power, I would have fired him (Wike) long ago,” Momodu said.

When questioned about his rationale for wanting to expel Wike from the party, Momodu responded, “Such an unruly person who wants to destroy our party? One individual cannot hold everybody to ransom. If we fought the military, Tinubu was part of those who fought the military in this country, and then, you will now allow a civilian dictatorship?”

Prior to the 2023 elections, Wike and four other former governors, collectively known as the G-5 within the PDP, withdrew their support for the party’s presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, due to disagreements over power-sharing within the PDP.
