“I Will Not Place Our Relationship Above This Party” — Gov Fintiri Tells Wike
Governor Ahmadu Umaru Fintiri of Adamawa State, chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) National Convention Committee, has delivered a firm message to former Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike and his allies.
Speaking on Wednesday, September 3, 2025, Fintiri vowed that no faction would derail the party’s upcoming convention in Ibadan, Oyo State.
“The party comes before personal relationships,” he declared, urging party members to resolve disputes internally rather than through public confrontations.
“I will not place our relationships above this party. Let us not take all our matters to the media. It is becoming too embarrassing. If you are a party man, you settle issues within the party. We will not allow indiscipline and blackmail to derail this process,” Fintiri said.
