2027: Wike wants to keep PDP, never promised support beyond presidency – Fayose

Former Ekiti State Governor Ayodele Fayose stated on Tuesday that Federal Capital Territory Minister Nyesom Wike desires to retain the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for future use. According to Fayose, Wike has not pledged support to anyone other than the 2027 presidential election. The former governor's comments follow the Progressives Governors Forum criticizing the Rainbow Coalition, a combination of the PDP and APC in Rivers State, led by Wike who had pledged their support to President Bola Tinubu.

Speaking on Channels Television's Politics Today, Fayose highlighted that both Wike and himself, along with the governors, have not concealed their positions of supporting President Tinubu. Fayose emphasized that no one in Nigeria would deny knowing Wike's mannerisms or future actions, as Wike has a habit of declaring his intentions beforehand.

He urged discussion around the upcoming gubernatorial elections, stating that there is still time before the 2027 presidential election.
