Former Ekiti State Governor Ayodele Fayose has warned the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, against exiling Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, from the party.
Fayose cautioned that the PDP would be foolish to dismiss Wike because he is a force within the party.
During an appearance on Channels Television’s Hard Copy, the former governor gave the warning.
According to Fayose: “The moment I am not in the PDP, I would never join another political party. And I would never be a member of the APC – not whether they are good or bad.
“Some people say fight Wike, expel Wike, sack Wike. I think they do that at their own peril. You see, the first thing in your family, even when you have extreme situations or indifferences, is not to drive away your wife or husband.
“Wike is a force in the PDP and beyond PDP, a force you cannot ignore, ignore Wike, sack Wike, or fight Wike at your own peril. He is a man of capacity.”
There have been calls for the PDP to expel Wike from the party following his decision to support President Bola Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress, APC, during the last presidential election.
