Tensions Soar In PDP! Enugu Governor, South-East Leaders Set To Abandon Party

The South-East PDP caucus made their grievances known on Wednesday during the Zonal Executive Committee (ZEC) meeting held in Enugu.

During the gathering, the leaders demanded the immediate recognition of Ude-Okoye as the party’s National Secretary, emphasizing that continued neglect of the region’s interests would no longer be tolerated.

Speakers at the meeting, including Ali Odefa and other top party figures, unanimously echoed the threat to abandon the party if their demands are not swiftly met.

In a strongly worded statement, the caucus declared:

“If our position is not urgently addressed by the Party, the South-East PDP, united as one family, will be forced to reconsider our commitment to the PDP moving forward.”

Meanwhile, former spokesman of the PDP’s 2019 presidential campaign organization, Umar Sani, has accused Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, of actively destabilizing the party.

According to Sani, Wike has consistently chosen personal ambition over party unity, using his influence to weaken rather than strengthen the PDP.

Responding to Wike’s recent media appearance, Sani stated:

“In the ever-shifting landscape of Nigerian politics, few are as divisive and unpredictable as Chief Nyesom Wike. Once a powerful pillar within the PDP, he has now become one of its most disruptive forces, prioritizing ego and betrayal over collective progress.”
