He also noted that some members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), who aspire for the party’s presidential ticket in 2027, are aligning against him. Wike expressed confidence that his political adversaries would not succeed, stating, “Peter Obi’s group lobbied me extensively, but I knew it wouldn’t work. Rivers State will not support a losing candidate.”

Wike remarked on the internal conflicts within the PDP, asserting, “There’s a faction pushing for the presidency, and they believe they must act now to avoid problems.
