A former national chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Uche Secondus, has stated that the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, is the biggest threat to democracy in Nigeria.
Secondus argued that Wike’s unchecked excesses is capable of truncating the nation’s democracy.
He stated this while reacting to last Saturday’s local government elections in Rivers State.
Speaking via a statement, Secondus warned the federal government that the man it was protecting was aiming to pull down democracy in the country and should be closely watched.
“It’s only in this country and under the watch of a party like APC that one person will be a member of two political parties and use them to cause nuisance in the society,” he said.
He advised President Bola Tinubu to see Wike for what he truly was, “an unruly bull in a China shop, ready and willing to pull down everything in the shop to quench his violent appetite.”
He reminded the federal government of the strategic importance of Rivers State hosting critical assets of the nation.
He insisted that all indexes of a failed democracy already existed in Nigeria, and the federal government should be careful about how it was handling anti-democratic operatives like Wike.
