The Peoples Democratic Party’s (PDP) Board of Trustees (BOT) has said an invitation was extended to the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, for a meeting as part of efforts to address the party’s internal crisis.

A member of the PDP BOT, Senator Abdul Ningi, said it was wrong that Wike remained a member of the PDP and at the same time was enriching and influencing other parties to fight the main opposition political party.

The Bauchi South Senator explained that the internal crisis in the party was an outcome of the last general election.

He noted that some of the party members who did not get what they wanted in the last election were out to destroy the party.

Ningi said this on Wednesday while speaking with Arise TV.

“The mindset of some key actors is that this party must not survive. This party does not warrant our sympathy because at a time in the immediate past, some people did not get what they wanted.

“They are members of the PDP, otherwise there wouldn’t have been crisis. You cannot be a member of the PDP and at the same time be a member of another party. You cannot be a member of the PDP and at the same time enriching or influencing other parties to fight the PDP,” he said.

He added that the decision to write Wike was after the BOT’s meeting with Rivers State Governor, Siminalaya Fubara.

He stated that Wike was part of Rivers State’s problem.

Ningi said he was happy that Wike said he would remain in the party and fight, adding that the BOT wants a united PDP.

“We have written a letter, the BOT has written a letter to him, to also meet him. When we were in Port Harcourt, we also tried to understand the irreducible minimum that the governor can give the party to survive in the state.

“And we have taken that. Our next venture is, of course, to see the FCT minister and have also a discussion with him,” Senator Ningi said.
