Former Jigawa State Governor and chieftain of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), Sule Lamido, has declared that he will not attend party meetings unless Nyesom Wike and Samuel Ortom among others are expelled.

Lamido made the Wike and Ortom expel declaration in an interview with journalists.

The former Foreign Affairs Minister who incidentally is a member of two statutory organs of the party, the National Executive Committee, (NEC) and Board of Trustees, (BoT) listed Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike and former Benue State Governor, Dr Samuel Ortom amongst individuals who should have been expelled from the main opposition party for working against its interest in the 2023 general elections.

Lamido who recalled his stewardship as National Secretary of the defunct Social Democratic Party when he championed the expulsion of late Arthur Nzeribe from the SDP, expressed regret over lack of discipline in the PDP.

During our time, the party was supreme. It held full authority, and everyone respected it, whether in the North, South, East, or West

He said: “During our time, the party was supreme. It held full authority, and everyone respected it, whether in the North, South, East, or West. Anyone — no matter how influential — who crossed the party line would be sanctioned.

“Today, people openly working against the PDP are still being tolerated. “Someone like Wike, who claims to love the PDP but is clearly undermining it, should be expelled by the NWC. Why hasn’t that happened?
