The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has summoned Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), to appear before a disciplinary committee amid allegations of anti-party activities.
Osun Defender reports that the move signals a potential suspension for Wike following recent controversial remarks.
The PDP’s Deputy National Publicity Secretary, Ibrahim Abdullahi, revealed the development in an interview with Channels TV on Monday.
Abdullahi confirmed that the disciplinary committee has officially invited Wike to address his recent comments, which the party views as unacceptable.
Abdullahi said the FCT minister’s statement about “putting fire in their states” about PDP governors is unacceptable.

According to him, “Wike should be able to manage his words carefully; that was a very disappointing remark. We weren’t expecting him to say that, and we are not with him on that, to be honest with you.”
This is coming hours after Wike expressed his contentment with serving under President Bola Tinubu, despite the criticisms and speculations surrounding his appointment.
The FCT minister declared that anyone angry with his position in Tinubu’s government should go and hug the transformer.
