2027: Wike will ask Nigerians to vote for Tinubu not APC – PDP spokesman, Jungudo

The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, National Publicity Secretary, Haruna Jungudo, stated on Wednesday that FCT Minister Nyesom Wike can only advise Nigerians to vote for President Bola Tinubu, not the All Progressives Congress, APC. Jungudo clarified that Wike is a member of the PDP and would support the party's candidates, except for the presidential one.

The spokesman highlighted that major political parties would welcome Wike into their ranks, but ultimately, it is the will of the Nigerian people that determines the outcome. Jungudo affirmed that the PDP has credible candidates, with Tinubu as their presidential nominee. This statement follows the ongoing disagreement between Wike and the Progressives Governors Forum regarding the Rainbow Coalition in Rivers State.

APC governors have expressed concerns that such a coalition could impact Tinubu's chances in the 2027 re-election. However, Wike has refuted these claims, referring to them as lazy politicians.
