BREAKING: Robinson Ewor: Wike’s Mission To Destroy PDP Is Funded By Tinubu
The Acting Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the state, Robinson Ewor, has launched a scathing attack on Federal Capital Territory Minister, Nyesom Wike, accusing him of plotting to wreck the party from within — with alleged support from President Bola Tinubu.
Ewor, speaking during an interview with ARISE NEWS on Monday, declared that Wike is no longer a true member of the PDP, asserting that the former Rivers governor’s loyalty now lies firmly with the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
“Nyesom Wike, FCT minister, is no longer a member of the PDP. Nyesom Wike today exists in PDP because he is on a mission to destroy the PDP, to destroy the opposition in the country, not just Rivers state,” Ewor said.
He alleged that Wike’s insistence on keeping Sam Anyanwu as the PDP’s National Secretary, despite internal opposition, is part of a broader plan to destabilise the opposition party ahead of the 2027 general elections.
“That is why today he is insisting that Sam Anyanwu remains national secretary. What is his business? You are serving an APC government. You have pledged your loyalty to the APC. You have said it openly and publicly that you will support the APC in the 2027 general election. What business does Wike still have in the APC?” Ewor asked pointedly.
He added, “In good conscience, let’s leave the law and every other thing. In good conscience, can Nigerians still see Wike as a member of the PDP? The answer is no.”
The most damning part of Ewor’s remarks came when he accused President Tinubu of bankrolling Wike’s activities, claiming the FCT minister is being used as a political tool to weaken the PDP from within.
“To us in Rivers, Wike is no longer a member of the PDP. He is only here to destroy the PDP, to destroy the opposition. And the president is helping him. That is the irony of it. The president is funding Wike,” he alleged.
Ewor’s comments reflect the growing tension within the PDP ranks as they grapple with internal divisions and high-profile defections, raising questions about the party’s unity and ability to present a formidable opposition ahead of the next general elections.
