I’m Unrepentable PDP Member But Tinubu Is My Boss – Wike

Former governor of Rivers State and Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesome Wike has reaffirmed that he is a member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) despite rumour making the rounds that he would defect to the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Wike made the revelation in an interview recently, putting to rest the controversy surrounding his relationship with the PDP.

He said: “I’m a PDP member, unrepentable one. What has that got to do with governance, remember Obasanjo and Atiku; president and vice president in 1999, they took late Bola Ige who was an AD member, not just to become minister of power but to become Attorney General of the country.”

“So what is new about that I’m serving in APC government? I served in PDP, I supported Bola Ahmed Tinubu, yes. Did I hide it? I feel at home working with Tinubu. He has given me that courage. He is a man who means well for the country.”

“I’m not here to work for a party; I’m here to support the president, who has the confidence in me to help him deliver the renewed hope. I owe nobody any apologies at all.”

“I was in PDP and I worked for Tinubu to be president. In the South East and South South, there is no one state the president won except Rivers state. We don’t regret it.”

“Tinubu is my boss. He appointed me, he sets my agenda, he gives the template that this is what I want in Abuja and i want to carry it out to the letter.”
