Political analyst Ilyasu Gadu has warned that the rift between Nyesom Wike and the APC governors could lead to serious divisions within the ruling party. According to Gadu, the APC governors feel that they no longer need Wike's support in the upcoming 2027 presidential elections, as they believe they have the ability to hold the party together and win the election without him.
Wike is currently at odds with the Progressive Governors Forum, led by Imo State governor Hope Uzodinma, over the Rainbow Coalition, which includes candidates from various states. Gadu stated that the lines are becoming increasingly blurred, and it is highly likely that the APC will face significant problems preparing for the 2027 elections.
He explained that the APC hopefuls have never been accommodating to Wike, despite his contributions in helping the President win previous elections. The analyst believes that Wike's role in the party will become more difficult as the governors no longer see him as necessary.
