Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory and former Governor of Rivers State, made a notable appearance at a critical Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) stakeholders meeting held at the Bauchi Governor’s Lodge in Abuja.
Arriving promptly, Wike exited his vehicle and joined fellow governors, former governors, and members of the PDP National Working Committee to discuss pressing challenges facing the party.
This meeting, convened under the leadership of Bauchi State Governor Bala Mohammed, brought together key PDP figures, including six serving governors and several former state executives. The gathering aimed to tackle internal conflicts and recent defections that have threatened the party’s unity ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Wike’s presence was particularly significant, or curious, depending on who is watching, given his previous alignment with the breakaway G5 faction and his association with the APC-led federal government, which had sparked speculation about his loyalty to the PDP.
His attendance could also signal a potential shift towards reconciliation and renewed engagement within the party framework. Or he could just be a mole and the final instrument to further bring the major opposition political party to its knees. Still depending….
Other notable attendees, it is alleged, included Governors Seyi Makinde, Ademola Adeleke, Caleb Mutfwang, Ahmadu Fintiri, Peter Mbah, and Dauda Lawal, alongside former governors such as Bukola Saraki and Ahmed Makarfi.
The meeting, expectedly, underscored the PDP’s urgent need to restore cohesion and strategize for upcoming political contests.
As the party grapples with defections and internal disputes, Wike’s return to the dialogue table may mark a pivotal moment in efforts to rebuild trust and solidarity among PDP stakeholders. Or the opposite, still.
Further details from the meeting are expected to emerge soon
