🟥 Wike-Aligned PDP Faction Moves First — ‘No Coalition, No Talks’
The Peoples Democratic Party has plunged deeper into internal conflict after a faction aligned with Nyesom Wike publicly denied any alliance with the African Democratic Congress and issued a legal warning.
Speaking at the inaugural National Working Committee (NWC) meeting at Wadata Plaza, Abuja, Abdulrahman Muhammed delivered a direct rebuttal to the growing coalition narrative.
“In light of recent speculations, we wish to state unequivocally that the Peoples Democratic Party is not engaged in any merger or coalition discussions with the African Democratic Congress or with any other political party in Nigeria.”
THIS IS NOT JUST A DENIAL
IT IS A DECLARATION OF CONTROL
🟨 Direct Hit — Turaki Camp Accused of ‘False Narrative’
The statement quickly escalated into a direct confrontation, with the faction taking aim at remarks linked to Taminu Turaki.
“We therefore strongly condemn the misleading and unfounded statements attributed to Taminu Turaki, which attempt to create a false narrative of non-existent coalition talks.”
The accusation transforms the issue from external speculation into an internal battle over who defines the PDP’s political direction.
THIS IS FACTION VS FACTION — NOT JUST PARTY VS REPORTS
🟥 Legal Threat Issued — ‘We Will Take All Necessary Steps’
The Wike-aligned bloc moved further, warning that it would not tolerate what it described as attempts to misinform the public or damage the party’s credibility.
“The PDP will take all necessary legal steps to address any conduct that borders on contempt of court or misrepresentation, in accordance with extant laws.”
The introduction of legal action signals a shift from political disagreement to institutional escalation, raising the stakes within the party.
🟨 Crisis Over? PDP Declares Stability, Cites INEC Recognition
Beyond the coalition dispute, the faction used the moment to assert that the party’s internal leadership crisis has been resolved.
“It is also significant to note that the question of leadership, which was once subject to contention, has now been conclusively settled.”
According to the party, recognition by the Independent National Electoral Commission — including the upload of its national officers — confirms the legitimacy of the current leadership structure.
“The era of uncertainty is behind us, and the PDP is once again firmly anchored on a foundation of legality and order.”
🟥 Repositioning for 2027 — ‘Stronger Than Ever’ Claim
With internal disputes declared resolved, the faction signalled a strategic pivot toward future elections.
“Looking towards 2027, we assure Nigerians that the PDP will present ideas, leadership, and solutions that reflect the true aspirations of our people. The Peoples Democratic Party is back, stronger than ever, and ready to lead.”
