 2027: Ugochinyere alleges plot by Wike group to stop PDP from fielding candidate


The lawmaker representing the Ideato Federal Constituency of Imo State in the House of Representatives, Ikenga Ugochinyere, has raised the alarm over an alleged plot by a pro-Nyesom Wike group to stop the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, from fielding candidates in the 2027 elections.

The lawmaker made the allegations on Wednesday while addressing journalists regarding the crisis rocking the main opposition party.

According to him, the Wike group, led by the embattled National Secretary of the party, Samuel Anyanwu, is plotting to obtain a court judgment that will permanently stop the PDP from fielding both presidential and governorship candidates.

“I want to warn the public of a well-orchestrated plot by the pro-Wike group, led by Anyanwu, to obtain a judgment that will permanently stop the PDP from having a national convention, from fielding a governorship candidate, and from fielding a presidential candidate,” he said.

He also commended members of the National Working Committee (NWC) of the party for standing against injustice within the party.

The lawmaker claimed that 15 out of the 18 NWC members are against the “madness of the Wike group.”

He stated, “I must commend the courageous members of the NWC. Despite the denials, they have remained firm.

“As of today, those who are against the madness of the Wike group in the PDP NWC are over 15 out of 18 members.”
