2023: Nigeria Is Bleeding, PDP Has To Take Over — Wike

Ahead of the 2023 Presidential election, Governor Wike of Rivers state, in Kaduna, on Monday, has described Nigeria as a country that is bleeding.

He called on members of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) to unite and take over power in 2023.

Wike’s host and former Governor of Kaduna State, Senator Ahmed Mohammed Makarfi, told Wike and his entourage that the people of Nigeria would be disappointed in the PDP if they don’t unite and take over power.

He said going by some election results in recent times where the ruling All Progressives Congress ( APC) had lost many units at grassroot levels, Nigerians were now tired and were waiting for the PDP to take overpower.

Wike told the crowd that besieged Makarfi ‘s Kaduna residence to see him; that he was not on a political trip but to see Senator Makarfi who was overseas on health grounds. 

According to him, Makarfi was important and held  in esteem by PDP  members because of his leadership qualities and the gallantry he displayed to save the party ” when Ali Modu Sheriff was being used to break the PDP.”

He explained that party members should be concerned about the unity and sustainability of the party, and be united ahead of the forthcoming campaign to wrestle power from the ruling APC.
