A member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Segun Sowunmi has said President Bola Tinubu is his party’s main problem.
Sowunmi, a former Ogun PDP gubernatorial candidate, stated this on a telivised show.
He likewise faulted the appointment of former Rivers State Chief Executive, Nyesom Wike, as FCT Minister, stating Tinubu had no business selecting Wike as a member of his cabinet.
“People will like to say Wike, but I will rather say President Bola Tinubu,” he said when asked what the PDP’s main problem is.
“He has no business appointing our member into his cabinet without talking to us. He had no business taking Nyesom Wike from our party and appointing him.”
Sowunmi communicated that when former President Olusegun Obasanjo needed to form a government of national unity, he sought advice from elders of the party.
He made sense of the fact that if Tinubu believed the PDP should be alright, he would return Wike to the opposition party.
Notwithstanding the crisis rocking the party, Sowunmi accepts that the PDP will be able to overcome them to reposition itself for power once more.
He said the party is neither dead nor sick, contending that the PDP is battling with democracy.
“We have not gotten to a stage whereby we will say we have gotten a new (set of ) executives. There are complications as to where Wike stands since he is a minister in the APC government and he is still in the PDP.
“These are consequences that will have to be managed. But I take very strong objections to the fact that you are explaining that the party is dead,” he added.
