“We can’t leave our house to armed robbers, we can’t do that. No way. And we won’t leave this party,” he said.

“I don’t lead the G5; our leader is the governor of Benue State.
“We are not like them. We would stay inside this house and fight.
“And we know they have no choice than to allow peace to reign.”

The PDP has been enmeshed in crisis after the party’s national convention in May 2022 where former Vice President Atiku Abubakar defeated 12 other aspirants, including Wike, to emerge the party presidential candidate for 2023 elections.

Dissatisfied with the outcome of the primary, Wike and his associates are demanding the replacement of the party’s National Chairman, Iyorchia Ayu with a southerner to correct “regional imbalance” in the PDP considering Messrs Atiku and Ayu are both northerners.
