On Friday, Ayodele Fayose, the former governor of Ekiti State, referred to Nyesom Wike, the minister of the Federal Capital Territory, as a bulldozer that the Governors’ Forum, PDP, and Peoples Democratic Party must use with caution.

Fayose cautioned that the PDP might not have a presidential candidate in 2027 if the governors are unable to come to an agreement with Wike.

Fayose cautioned PDP governors and party leaders not to ignore Wike’s current warning during an appearance on Channels TV’s Politics Today.

To further the party’s goals, the former governor said, the governors and the party’s leadership should work with Wike to establish areas of agreement.

He said: “Let me quickly warn that this Wike you see is like a bulldozer that you must manage or find a way to avoid. When somebody says I will come to your house at a particular time and he arrives, you must know that there is problem.

“The snippets I saw of Wike earlier is saying, ‘I’m warning now, I have said my own now.’ Before trouble will [erupt], can we find common ground to resolve this matter because you can’t build something on nothing.

“If the Supreme Court says Anyanwu is the National Secretary, okay, every other pronouncement is a nullity ab initio – where will it end – if they want to send a nominee to INEC, who will send it? Is it Anyanwu or the National Chairman that both can’t serve in isolation?

“We must tread carefully, honestly, I’m saying it that I have not seen Wike in a while but tread cautiously. When I say things, you don’t have to believe me today, but when it catches up with you, you will remember that Fayose told you.

“This was how I told Nigerians, with all due respect to Buhari, that he will mess up this country, and everybody was shouting me down that let him do his government, which he has done and left you wounded, so what are you saying?

“A Wike is telling us that if you go ahead to ignore the Supreme Court judgement, whatever happens take it, but me, I want the governors to find ways to sit with him and move the party forward, else, I want to believe that there will be no candidate for the PDP. When you play into Wike’s hands, it becomes a problem.”
