Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has rejected his purported expulsion from the main opposition Peoples Democratic Party.
On Saturday at the ongoing national convention in Ibadan, Oyo State, the party announced the expulsion of Wike; Samuel Anyanwu, former National Secretary of the party; and Ayodele Fayose, former governor of Ekiti State, from its fold.
Former National Vice Chairman of the party (South), Chief Olabode George, moved the motion for their expulsion.
The motion was seconded by Hon. Samaila Burga, Chairman of the PDP in Bauchi.
But the Senior Special Assistant on Publicity and Communications to the FCT Minister, Lere Olayinka, swiftly dismissed the expulsion.
Olayinka said the party members who announced the expulsion were “intoxicated” in their “dirty December.”
He said, “They went to Ibadan to start dirty December in November.
“When people decide to start their own dirty December in November, one can’t but ignore whatever comes out of their mouths.
“They gathered in Ibadan to do party, enjoy themselves, and intoxicated, they are free to say anything.”
