We stand with Wike, he is always there for us” – PDP hails FCT minister
“
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has reaffirmed its support for the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, praising him for his loyalty and contributions to the party.
Speaking at a book launch to honour Wike, the Deputy National Chairman (South) of the PDP, Taofeek Arapaja, stated that despite challenges within the party, including members with an “entitlement mentality,” Wike remains widely appreciated and respected.
Arapaja described Wike as one of the most committed and loyal leaders the PDP has ever produced.
He stated: “Our mentor and principal, who has never left PDP for a day, is one of the most committed, most loyal party leaders we have ever had. He has done well, he is doing well, and we wish him well in future endeavours.”
He noted Wike’s advocacy for equity, justice, and fairness, referencing the minister’s role in the G5 group and his consistent support for party members, unlike some leaders who only engage with the party when they need assistance.
“We know you, and we always love and appreciate you. Some people believe in entitlement mentality, but we will always stand by you because you are a man of integrity, honour, and a performer,” Arapaja said.
Arapaja also addressed comments made by Senate President Godswill Akpabio, expressing disappointment over remarks critical of the PDP.
He noted that Akpabio, who served as Governor of Akwa Ibom State under the PDP, owed much of his political foundation to the party.
“The foundation of all political parties is the PDP. I am surprised when someone who is a product of the PDP speaks negatively about it.
“Nobody can dispute the fact that the present Senate President performed during his tenure as governor under the PDP,” he stated.
