The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, has publicly stated that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is not adequately prepared for the 2027 elections.
Wike stated that the PDP does not have a formidable structure to defeat the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in 2027.
The Minister disclosed this during a live media parley in Abuja on Friday.
It has been reported that the opposition leaders across the country are intensifying efforts to form a united front against the APC.
However, divergent interests among key stakeholders have continued to hamper the progress of coalition talks.
Speaking during the media parley, Wike said: “The PDP is not ready for the 2027 election. It is very obvious. For instance, I have an examination and I am going to class to read. Indeed, am I reading? Am I studying?
“You don’t need to deceive anybody that you are reading. You are only trying to read so that people will see that you have carried your bag to class.
“That is the situation of the PDP. So, they cannot say for sure that they are ready for 2027. Power struggle cannot help the party.”
