BREAKING: Wike mentions 2 PDP governors involved in anti-party activities recently


Former Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike has accused his successor, Siminalayi Fubara, of sponsoring the Action Peoples Party (APP) in the recent local government elections. This allegation comes after APP won 22 out of 23 chairmanship positions, a surprising outcome given Fubara’s affiliation with the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), which did not participate in the elections.

Wike, now Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, made these claims on Channels Television’s Sunday Politics program. He stated, “Today, people say ‘Discipline Wike, he did anti-party’. Today, what happened? The governor [Fubara] is the one who sponsored APP.” This revelation raises questions about Fubara’s involvement in the elections and potential motivations.

The local government elections were marked by controversy, with violence and arson reported in several areas. The elections saw the APP emerge victorious, with Fubara subsequently swearing in the newly elected chairpersons. However, Wike’s allegations suggest that Fubara may have played a significant role in APP’s success.
