Tension in PDP as Wike-Backed Faction Seizes Control Amid Police Presence

In a political power struggle within the People's Democratic Party (PDP), a faction supported by Nyesom Wike forcefully seized control of the party's secretariat in Abuja, accompanied by heavy security. The faction, led by Abdulrahman Moham, clashed with a rival bloc loyal to Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde.

This move deepens the uncertainty surrounding the party's leadership, with expulsions and suspensions adding to the turmoil.
