Gov. Fubara is the Leader of PDP in Revers not Wike---PDP Governor's 

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Governors' Forum has condemned the threats made by former Rivers State Governor and Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, describing them as "unbridled and irresponsible." 

The forum had previously expressed support for Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, and called on the party's National Working Committee (NWC) to recognise him as the rightful leader of the party in the state.

In response, Wike issued a statement at the PDP secretariat in Port Harcourt, vowing to take firm action against PDP-controlled states that threatened his political structure in the state. He warned that he would not hesitate to take drastic measures, stating, "I will put fire in their states."

The PDP Governors' Forum has subsequently denounced Wike's threats as "completely unacceptable" in a statement issued by its Director General, Emmanuel Agbo, on Tuesday. 

The forum's response emphasises the need for constructive dialogue and respectful communication within the party, rather than resorting to threats and intimidation.

The statement reads in part, “The attention of the Peoples Democratic Party Governors’ Forum (PDP-GF) under the chairmanship of H.E. Senator Bala Abdulkarim Mohamed (CON) and Governor of Bauchi State and all the member-Governors has been drawn to a widely circulating news story in which the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, H.E. Barrister Nyesom Wike, former Governor of Rivers State, made scathing and threatening comments regarding member-Governors of the Forum and notes the significant concerns that have been raised in the public space regarding the unity and peaceful coexistence within our party.

“The statements and threats to peaceful coexistence made by Wike to ‘Put fire’ in the PDP-controlled States are unbridled, irresponsible and without ambiguity unacceptable as it undermines efforts to build and maintain peace, cohesion, collaboration and mutual respect amongst leaders and members of the party."

The forum described as "rather unfortunate that this is coming from someone who was once a member of this highly revered forum as a former governor.”

The forum vowed to support its members individually and collectively, noting that what affects one member affects all.
