APC chieftain backs court judgement giving PDP order to suspend Wike

Eze, on Friday, June 16, said the judgement confirmed the validity of his counsel when prior to the 2023 elections, he asked the PDP to quickly and without hesitation, suspend or expel Wike, who had allegedly perfected plans to manipulate the elections against the flagbearer of his own party, Atiku Abubakar.

He noted that with the court judgment in its favour, the PDP is still within time to show the likes of Wike the way out and embark on a rebuilding project to recover her losses, LEADERSHIP reported.

The APC chieftain said his position stems from the fact that the country needs very vibrant and coordinated opposition political parties to critically monitor the policies of the government and serve as a watchdog for the interest of Nigerians.
