“They have destroyed our party. We are going to chase them away from our party. They have no role to play for our party.” Wike also slammed the leadership of the PDP for accusing the chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission of not following election guidelines when they allegedly refused to follow the party’s constitution.
He further mocked the PDP leaders for staging the protest against INEC describing the party leaders as “students unions.”
