Wike: 1 Man Can’t Sit In His Bedroom & Write Names Of NWC Members,You Must Have Consultation-Aziegbemi
Fresh political tension is brewing within the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) as Dr. Tony Aziegbemi, the Edo State PDP Chairman, has strongly emphasized the need for internal democracy and wide consultation in the party’s decision-making process.
In a video shared by Symfoni TV, Aziegbemi stressed that the PDP was built on collective participation, warning against a situation where a single individual controls major party decisions, especially the selection of National Working Committee (NWC) members. His comments have been widely interpreted as a pointed reference to ongoing internal disagreements involving former Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike.
Aziegbemi insisted that party positions should not be determined by one person acting alone, but through proper consultation involving multiple stakeholders. He maintained that the strength of the PDP lies in its identity as a “people’s party,” where inclusiveness and shared decision-making remain key principles.
His remarks come at a time when internal disagreements within the opposition party continue to make headlines, raising questions about unity, leadership control, and the direction of the PDP ahead of future political contests.
As reactions continue to pour in, many Nigerians are now asking whether the PDP can resolve its internal conflicts and present a united front going forward.
