Peter Obi lacks character, integrity for dumping PDP 72 hours to presidential primaries —Gov Wike
The Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, on Thursday blasted the former Anambra State governor, Peter Obi, for dumping the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) ahead of this weekend’s presidential primary.
Wike, who featured in a Channels Television programme, Politics Today, said the former governor lacked character and integrity for dumping the party with just 72 hours to the primary.
Obi, who is one of the 2023 presidential aspirants, dumped the PDP on Wednesday.
Peter Obi leaving the party is not surprising to me… he knows that there is no way he would have won the presidential primaries. – Nyesom Wike, Governor of Rivers State.#PoliticsToday pic.twitter.com/fx5oP0tjsM
