FCT Minister, Wike Hints On 'Best' Palliative For Abuja Residents

Governor Nyesom Wike of  River State has said judgement day will soon come for his detractors in the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

The governor claimed that some politicians were after his life for calling for the fair distribution of positions in the party ahead of the 2023 general elections.

Wike said PDP must as a matter of urgency give some of the national positions to the South or reap the consequences of its actions.

He said this on Wednesday during the inauguration of the Faculty of Social Sciences Campus of the Rivers State University and the commissioning of the construction of staff quarters for the faculty sited in Emohua Local Government Area.

Wike, who led Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State to the commissioning of the projects, described his detractors in the party as dubious people.

He said: “That is what I have been saying but they said they would kill me. As I gave to Etche, I have given it to Emohua and tomorrow we are going to Ahoada. That is the principle of that music. That is what I am telling them.

“You can’t take everything. If you take everything it will purge you. Better do the right things now. Don’t think you can muscle me. You cant manipulate anything. You can think you have the number to make sure you take everything, the time is coming when you will account for it. You have reminded me about these wuruwuru people there.

“The only states you can see commissioning something or flagging off are those states according to them that the boys are in charge. Those who have interest and mean well for the PDP.

“At the end of the day if any PDP state is not doing well, don’t think you will be voted for because the APC is not doing well. That is why the party should respect us and know that we are the ones campaigning for the party because we have what to use to campaign and not to abuse people on the pages of newspapers or go to television to bring people who have some mental problems to defend something that you cannot defend.”

Wike said some governorship candidates of the party collected money and left, wondering why the party wanted them to deal with such characters.

He added: “Those of them who cannot look at us in our faces, you can see people who say they want to run for governorship but they know they are not running for governorship, they just come and collect money and go. Such characters are the characters you want us to deal with.

“We will mention their names very soon when the time comes. People who are not sincere, 419 in their DNA and they think they are smart. No. The judgement time has come and you will tell the people who you are.”
