PDP Crisis Explodes: Wike Withdraws from Reconciliation, Blames Makinde for Betrayal

blaming Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde for the ongoing crisis.

With the 2027 elections looming, PDP was desperate for unity, but instead, the party seems more fractured than ever.

From Peace Talks to Political Warfare

For months, PDP leaders tried to patch up the wounds left by the fallout of the 2023 elections. Wike, once a central figure in the party, sat down with top politicians, including Bukola Saraki, Bala Mohammed, and Umaru Fintiri, hoping to find common ground.

But instead of healing, the cracks widened.

🔴 G5 Governors Meeting in Lagos—Wike confronted Makinde, accusing him of betraying party agreements.

🔴 Secret Political Deals—Wike exposed a scheme where Makinde allegedly worked behind the scenes with Enugu Governor Peter Mbah to install Ude Okoye as PDP’s National Secretary.

🔴 Legal Drama & Leadership Struggles—Agreements over Samuel Anyanwu’s position as National Secretary were repeatedly violated, throwing PDP into legal uncertainty.

Wike’s Final Straw—Why He Pulled Out

“I have now firmly decided to pull out of all agreements hitherto reached. I have decided to fight on until justice is attained,” Wike declared in his fiery statement.

His frustration boiled over after he learned that Makinde and others had engineered secret meetings, attempting to override established agreements and force leadership changes within the party.

What Happens Next? The PDP’s Future Is at Risk

⚡ Can PDP survive this latest fallout?

⚡ Will more defections weaken the party before 2027?

⚡ Is Wike planning an even bigger political move?

One thing is certain—this battle isn’t over. PDP now faces its toughest challenge yet, and the countdown to 2027 just got more interesting.
