 I can’t defect in secret – Malami denies dumping APC, defecting to SDP Former Attorney General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami, has dismissed rumours of dumping the All Progressives Congress, APC, for the Social Democratic Party, SDP. Malami assured that he’s still a member of the APC, stressing that he can’t defect to the SDP in secret. In a statement signed by his Media Aide, Mohammed Bello Doka, the former AGF said he is, however, consulting with other platforms. The statement by Doka reads partly: “Malami is a prominent figure in Nigeria, therefore, cannot defect to any party in secret, he is still in APC but in a broad consultations with different platforms. Until the consultations are over, it is premature to talk about defection or declaration of interest.” The statement also said Malami remains in active politics and would make his position known when the time wast ripe. ‘’Malami has right to belong to any political party and to contest any position in Kebbi State,’’ Do...

Wike Can Never Lead APC in Rivers State – Tonye Cole

July 12, 2023
    
The 2023 governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress in Rivers State, Patrick Tonye-Cole, says the choice of who will be appointed as minister from the State is the prerogative of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

Tonye-Cole, who spoke when he was featured as a guest on Political Paradigm on Channels Television on Tuesday, was reacting to speculations that former governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Wike is a possible candidate for a ministerial position, despite being a member of the Peoples Democratic Party.

He said whatever the president’s decision, Wike will not take over the APC in Rivers State.

He noted that Rivers APC members are some of the most diehard members of the party and should not be neglected by President Bola Tinubu’s administration.

“It is the prerogative of the president to decide who and what type of scenario he wants to build.

“He may choose that as a president, you know what, let me create a government that seems to be a unity government, to bring people from different political parties and all of that. That may be one of the considerations.

“It may be that there is this perception that he delivered and I must reward him. I went into a deal, I must reward him. It might be the case.

“Now, whatever the president’s rationale behind that is, I won’t question that.

“What we will do instead, is ensure that whatever happens, he’s not going to take the APC in Rivers State.” He added

Tonye-Cole, on the issue of Wike defecting to the APC, said he doubts such a step will be taken by the former governor, adding that all Wike’s actions are geared towards the 2027 and 2031 elections.

“I have no doubt that Nyesom Wike has a deep interest in politics moving forward, in terms of presidency or vice president.

“So, all of this is all part of his own calculation as to where he is going and what he wants to do,” he said.
