Paul Ibe, the media aide to former Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar has accused the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory Nysom Wike as a willing tool used by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s APC administration of destroying the party and other opposition parties.
He was reacting to the PDP’s letter to the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, regarding the recently conducted South-South Zonal Congress.
During the congress, the South-South Zonal Vice Chairman of the PDP, Chief Dan Orbih, was re-elected.
Ibe via his X handle on Wednesday, where he said the former Rivers State Governor is involved in anti-party activities.
*”It is no longer news that Wike is engaging in anti-party activities; that he is a willing tool used by Tinubu’s APC administration to destroy the @OfficialPDPNig and other opposition parties.
“This letter from the PDP to the @inecnigeria is a confirmation that the actions of Wike and his cohorts regarding the party’s South-South Zonal Congress are contrary to the position of the PDP.
“It is a deliberate ploy to create a crisis to serve the interest of his paymaster.”*
