The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has issued a challenge to the leadership of his political party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), daring them to take disciplinary action against him.
In his statement on Wednesday, Wike confidently asserted that he has yet to encounter a party leader who possesses the authority to suspend or expel him from the PDP.
“Who will discipline me? I should be the one calling for the discipline of these people who violated the party’s constitution, in the way that the party supported rotation.
“Who will suspend me? I want to dare anybody,” Wike said.
Wike said, “We are just waiting for the presidential panel to finish, you will know who actually are those who are working well for the party.
“How can anybody talk about expelling me? A state that brought a governor? A state that brought three senators? A state that produced 32 House of Assembly members? A state that produced 11 out of 13 House of Representatives.
“The person that would suspend me is the one that couldn’t produce a governor, is the one that couldn’t produce three senators?
“I have not seen that person, with all due respect. Nobody will do it. So, the issue of they will do it does not arise.”
