Kamaldeen Ajibade, the PDP’s national legal adviser, has cautioned that members who publicly identify as PDP but covertly support other political parties pose the biggest threat to the party.
Speaking on the Morning Show on Arise Television on Monday, Ajibade made the remark.
Speaking on the role of FCT minister Wike, Ajibade stated that it would be incorrect to single out former Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike and the G5 group for the party’s 2023 electoral defeat.
He emphasised that the party has taken action to address issues of discipline and loyalty among its members, clarifying that the G5 crisis was not about a single person.
Ajibade went on to say that the PDP was trying to fortify its organisation in preparation for upcoming elections by enforcing discipline and maintaining unity.
He said: “I can see that your question is bordered purely on the issue of Wike, not talking about any other person. I think in addressing this issue, it’s always good to take it holistically and not look at the aspect of Wike. The role of Wike was in the aspect of the G5 that everybody believes made the party lose the chances in the 2023 election.
“The G5 was not just about Wike alone. So, on the issue of discipline or lack thereof, I can tell you that the party has stepped forward to discipline every member. The most dangerous member of a political party is a member who is PDP in the daytime and somewhere else at night.
“So for Wike, we’ve known his position, and Wike has come out to state his position as clearly as possible. In terms of discipline, the party is checking itself, and we’re working on that.”
