Governor Wike Reacts to Court Ruling on PDP Convention

Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State expressed mixed emotions following a court ruling that halted the PDP's 2025 national convention, emphasizing the importance of curbing impunity within the party. The ruling by Justice James Omotosho of the Federal High Court in Abuja restrained the PDP from holding the convention until statutory provisions were met.

Wike commended the decision as a step towards upholding party rules and ensuring internal reforms. He urged PDP governors to focus on improving citizens' welfare and respecting due process to avoid sending the wrong message.
