The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has apologised to Nigerians for offering a platform to FCT Minister Nyesom Wike, whose conduct and speeches it described as “not just a national but an international disgrace.”
The party made the apology in a statement on Wednesday signed by its spokesperson, Comrade Ini Ememobong, following Wike’s media chat earlier in the day.
PDP said its statement was “a profuse apology to Nigerians for offering a platform to a person whose conduct, speeches, and reasoning have become not just a national but an international disgrace.”
It states that if the party had not offered Wike its platform, the nation would have been spared “unmitigated damage” to the psyche of Nigerians.
“We must acknowledge that if we did not lend our platform to make him a Chairman, Minister of State, and Governor, the nation would have been saved the unmitigated damage done to the psyche of countless Nigerians,” the party said.
PDP also advised anyone defamed by Wike during his media chat to seek legal redress.
“We admonish those he has defamed to seek legal redress, as no one is, and should be allowed to be, above the law,” the statement read.
The party dismissed Wike’s entire media chat as a “political swan song” and “the last kicks of a dying horse,” adding that the session was “full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.”
