Factions no longer exist in PDP, Wike declares after Supreme Court verdict

‎‎The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has declared an end to factionalism in the Peoples Democratic Party following the Supreme Court’s dismissal of the appeal by the Kabiru Turaki-led group over the Ibadan National Convention.

Speaking at his Abuja residence shortly after the judgment on Thursday, Wike told reporters that the Supreme Court decision has settled the matter once and for all.

‎”The Supreme Court judgment has now made it known there is only one PDP, and we no longer hear faction,” Wike declared. “Faction does not exist any longer in the Peoples Democratic Party.”

The apex court voided the PDP national convention held in Ibadan on November 15-16, 2025, which produced the Tanimu Turaki-led executives.
