By • Olalekan Fagbade Expel Wike at your own peril – Former PDP Governor warns Party Former Governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose, has cautioned the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) against expelling the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike, from the party. Fayose warned that the PDP would be expelling Wike at its own peril because he’s a force within the party. The former governor issued the warning while appearing on Channels Television’s Hard Copy. 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. Recently, the new Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, had declared that nobody can expel him from the former ruling party.

Fayose demands an apology or he sue PDP for suspending him

Former Governor of Ekiti state, Ayodele Fayose has threatened to file a lawsuit against the Peoples Democratic Party for suspending him. Though Fayose's suspension has been reversed, he claimed it was done without any cause and was “libellous and defamatory” with the intent to tarnish his image. A letter dated March 31 and addressed to Iliya Damagum, PDP's acting national chairman, by Fayose's lawyer, Akinwale Kol-Taiwo, read; “We are further informed by our client that by the letter dated 24th March 2023, the reversal of our client’s suspension from Peoples Democratic Party which was done without recourse to laid down procedure/due process of law as contained in the constitution of the Peoples Democratic Party (as amended in 2017) was requested,” the letter reads. “The Peoples Democratic Party, in retracing its steps and by implication admitting the content of the letter dated 24th March 2023, reversed the suspension of our client by a press release issued on 30th March 2023 through the office of the national publicity secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party. “The aforesaid libellous press release was designed to smear and tarnish the good reputation of our client in the eyes of right-thinking members of the society, as well as to subject our client to odium, ridicule, and public opprobrium in presence of his political associates and the general public. “While we do not contend that the Peoples Democratic Party reserve the power(s) to take disciplinary action against any erring member(s), it is much more pertinent to state that the said power(s) to take disciplinary action is not absolute, the said power(s) to take disciplinary action is limited to doctrine of fair hearing as enshrined in the Peoples Democratic Party Constitution (as amended in 2017) and the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria (1999) as amended. As such, your disciplinary powers must not be seen to infringe on the right of another citizen or person. “There is no doubt that the action of the national working committee of the Peoples Democratic Party (NWC) in this purported suspension saga acted rashly on baseless and unfounded allegations, thereby making our party — the Peoples Democratic Party — not just look weak, but disorganised.” Kol-Taiwo said if the PDP fails to issue an apology to Fayose within 72 hours of receiving the letter, he will commence legal actions against the party.
