Crisis: Real reason PDP cannot sack Wike, top political economist makes revelation

  • The feud between FCT minister, Nyesom Ezenwo Wike, and chieftains of Nigeria’s main opposition party, the PDP, continues
  • Recently, Wike called for the suspension of the party’s presidential candidate in the 2023 election, Atiku Abubakar, which elicited further condemnation from the former vice-president’s loyalists
  • Speaking to Legit.ng, a political economist, Dr. Adigun Muse, explained that Wike’s political stature is shielding him from a sanction

FCT, Abuja – Dr. Adigun Muse, a former head of the political science department at the Lagos State University of Education (LASUED), has spoken on the friction between Nyesom Wike, minister of the federal capital territory (FCT); and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

In an interview with Legit.ng, Dr. Muse said Nigeria’s main opposition party “may spell political doom” for itself should it sanction Wike.
