The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has told the All Progressives Congress (APC) to manage the political fallout from its engagement with Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, insisting the ruling party cannot now complain about his conduct.
PDP National Publicity Secretary, Ini Ememobong, made the remarks on Tuesday in Abuja, responding to a public exchange between Wike and APC National Secretary Senator Ajibola Basiru regarding political developments in Rivers State.
Ememobong emphasized that Wike is no longer a PDP member, having been expelled along with his supporters, and accused the APC of initially benefiting from him before raising objections. “The law does not allow you to benefit from a wrong you created, nor can you complain of a voluntary injury. They must manage the situation they created,” he said.
The PDP also rejected attempts to draw it into the controversy, noting that the conduct now criticised had previously served APC interests. Ememobong warned that the APC alone must deal with the consequences, adding, “This is what happens when you keep feeding a monster. One day, you become food in the belly of that monster.”
