Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Former National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Prince Uche Secondus, has cautioned the party\u2019s leadership against falling for the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, \u201cNyesom Wike\u2019s gimmicks.\u201d<\/p>\n

Secondus caution was contained in a statement signed by his Media Adviser, Ike Abonyi, on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

His caution comes as the PDP prepares for its 98th National Executive Council, NEC meeting scheduled on Thursday.<\/p>\n

Secondus said \u201cthe former (Rivers State) Governor Neysom Wike\u2019s busybodying gimmicks\u201d should not distract leaders from taking steps that would strengthen the PDP.<\/p>\n

He said: \u201cI expect the founding fathers and other dedicated members to rise to the challenge and return this great party to its glory by ensuring as they always do at critical moments that nobody or group is greater or bigger than this party.\u201d<\/p>\n

Secondus also charged PDP leaders not to fall into Wike\u2019s trick by giving him undeserved relevance which he no longer possesses.<\/p>\n
