Speaking during a live interview on Channels Television on Tuesday evening, closely monitored by Egalitarian Voice correspondent, Wisdom Darasimi, Wike insisted he was unaware of the development.

His remarks come at a time when preparations are already underway, with a committee reportedly set up to organise the incoming convention.
Wike’s statement has since triggered fresh debates within the PDP, as political observers weigh how his claims of ‘ownership’ may affect the party’s cohesion ahead of the exercise.
