2023: PDP Will Handle Wike When ……. – Tambuwal Speaks
In the midst of speculation about Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike’s preferred presidential candidate for the 2023 elections, Governor Aminu Tambuwal of Sokoto State says the party has legal avenues for dealing with erring members.
Former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar has faced apathy from five PDP governors, including Wike, Okezie Ikpeazu (Abia), Samuel Ortom (Benue), Ifeanyi Uguwanyi (Enugu), and Seyi Makinde, since his election as the PDP presidential candidate earlier this year (Oyo). They contend that PDP National Chairman Iyorchia Ayu, a northerner, must step down.
Responding to allegations of meetings with the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu, Wike said on Friday that he and his G5 allies had not reached an agreement with any presidential candidate ahead of next year’s election.

Tambuwal, on the other hand, issued a warning to the Rivers governor and others who were allegedly planning to go against the PDP’s interests.
“The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) will respond to the antics of five of its Governors currently being speculated to be in political dalliance with the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Ahmed Tinubu,” Tambuwal’s Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Muhammad Bello said in a statement on Friday.
“For hours before his remarks there has been reports that the G-5 PDP Governors led by Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers state have been meeting with Tinubu in London on the possibility of their teaming up to work for his victory in the forthcoming presidential elections.
“According to Governor Tambuwal, who is also the Director General of the Atiku/Okowa presidential campaign organization, the PDP is a law abiding party; and it would explore lawful avenues to bring any of its erring members to book.”
Tambuwal was quoted as saying that he engages in political engineering and political negotiations with the G5 members, whom he described as “good colleagues.”
“It is not a war of attrition. I always submit that in this our business, whatever it is that you are doing , even if you try to hide it, it will come out. You cannot plan and execute a political project in your own bedroom. You must come out with it.
“So, when my colleagues resolve on what to do, I think it is then that the party will now respond on whatever position they have taken,” he said.
