EXPOSED: How Wike played a role to Peter Obi’s exit from PDP – Paul Ibe (VIDEO)

Peter Obi’s departure from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) was facilitated by Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), according to Paul Ibe, the spokesperson for PDP presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar in 2023.

Ibe stated that Wike resisted Atiku’s request for the PDP to allocate the Southeast as the 2023 presidential ticket zone.

Prior to the 2023 presidential election, Obi left the PDP to run for president as the Labour Party, LP. Obi had been the party’s vice presidential nominee in the 2019 presidential contest.

With more than six million votes, he later emerged as a formidable candidate in the most recent general election.

The All Progressives Congress, or APC, defeated the PDP and LP in the 2023 election, and the main opposition party still needs to resolve its internal crisis.

Atiku, according to Ibe, was prepared to assign the Southeast the PDP presidential ticket.

Ibe claimed that Wike was upset by the decision to zone PDP’s ticket to the Southeast in an interview with Seun Okinbaloye for his Mic On program.

He said: “Atiku did not force Peter Obi out of the party, Wike was instrumental in the exit of Obi because Wike had promoted the zoning of the presidency to the south.

“Atiku Abubakar had said that he was prepared to get himself off the ticket if the party zoned the ticket to the Southeast.

“Wike frustrated that effort because he believed that if it was zoned to the south, not the southeast, he would be in the best position to be able to get the ticket.”
