“I Tried My Best… But Things Went South” — Wike’s Secret Talks, PDP Power Struggle Shake Party as Sambo Reveals Explosive Details
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is once again in the middle of serious political tension after fresh revelations about what really happened behind closed doors during its recent national convention.
According to Arise TV Director of News and Politics, Sumner Sambo, key political figures including Nyesom Wike, Bukola Saraki, Sule Lamido, and Ahmed Makarfi were deeply involved in intense discussions that shaped the direction of the party at a very critical moment.
Sambo revealed that Wike has, for now, emerged as a central and dominant figure within the party’s structure, with many stakeholders reportedly accepting his influence pending final judgment from the Supreme Court. This development has sparked fresh debate about leadership, loyalty, and the future of the PDP in Nigeria’s political space.
He also noted that almost all of Wike’s preferred nominees reportedly scaled through into key positions in the National Working Committee, a move that has further strengthened his political grip within the party.
However, not everything is settled. Serious controversy still surrounds the inclusion of some officials who were previously said to have been suspended, raising questions about legality and internal discipline within the party structure.

Sambo further hinted that Wike made attempts to resolve issues through political consultations, including talks with Governor Bala Mohammed, but things reportedly broke down, leading to the eventual convention decision that now defines the current situation.
As the PDP awaits possible Supreme Court intervention, uncertainty continues to hang over the party’s leadership and future direction.
