A Chieftain of the People’s Democratic Party PDP in Delta State Mr James Endurance Onwordi more known as Ibori Ubulu has risen in defense of FCT minister, Nyesom Wike over alleged plans by the PDP to expel him from the party.
The PDP chieftain also cautioned the spokesperson of the Atiku/PDP presidential campaign organization in the 2023 general elections, Daniel Bwala, against speaking ill of Wike.
Onwordi while addressing newsmen in Asaba, Delta State, said the PDP should be thinking of reconciliation and not suspending or expelling Wike.
He explained that the former Governor of Rivers State worked against the PDP presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, and not PDP because his ideology is based on rotational principles.
Onwordi said despite that, he made sure PDP emerged victorious in the state governorships, state and national elections.
The Delta PDP chieftain described Bwala as a “social media politician without an electoral value” unlike Wike who has fought for the growth of the party while others ran away .
“It’s unfair for Bwala to speak about Wike negatively considering Wike contributions to the party stability.
“The choice of a northern man Atiku Abubakar as Presidential Candidate made Wike for Tinubu.
“We should be talking about how to obey rotational principles instead of looking for ways to suspend or expel Wike .
“Suspending or expelling Wike will cost the party more harm because the party can not survive without Wike.
“Wike has contributed to the party than any other stakeholders.
“Bwala is not even a PDP member and shouldn’t be taken serious by party members like us who over the years did contributed to the party structures.” he said.
