A faction of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) led by Kabiru Turaki has dared Nyesom Wike, minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), to shut down its operational office.
Earlier this week, while speaking during his monthly media
chat, Wike challenged the Turaki-led group to prove its authenticity by
operating transparently.
The minister also threatened to seal off any building used
by the group for its operations.
Ibrahim Abdullahi, a former PDP deputy national publicity
secretary and private principal secretary to Turaki, said the faction has a
temporary building where it holds its business.
“We have been operating from an office. He knows the
location; he should come there and take over the office if he can,” Abdullahi
said.
“It is a temporary office, but we are meeting there and
carrying out our functions.”
He warned that the escalating crisis in the party was
pushing the country towards a Hobbesian state of anarchy, “where life is
brutish, short, and nasty”.
Meanwhile, Ini Ememobong, spokesperson of the Turaki
faction, had described Wike as delusional, saying the minister is aware that
the PDP operates party accounts.
“His delusional boast of dealing with banks that will open
accounts for us is delusional, as he is already aware that we are operating
accounts of the party, which is why his group of friends are receiving money
through private accounts,” he said.
