Wike Declares: “I’m Still PDP, and I’ll Step on Big Toes to Get Results”
In a bold statement that has stirred political discourse, Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, reaffirmed his allegiance to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) while expressing his readiness to challenge influential individuals to achieve effective governance. 
Speaking during his monthly press briefing on June 2, 2025, Wike addressed speculations about his political affiliations and his approach to leadership. He emphasized his commitment to the PDP, stating, “I’m still in PDP and work hard for this party.” 
Wike also highlighted his willingness to confront powerful figures to drive change, asserting, “I take joy when stepping on the toes of big men, those who say nothing will happen. I take joy in saying something will happen.” He criticized the reluctance of some leaders to make tough decisions, suggesting that fear of offending the wealthy hinders progress. 
Addressing concerns about his loyalty, Wike clarified, “The only person that I owe is Mr. President. This is what I’m doing because I have to support the government and make a difference.” He further warned against impunity within the PDP, stating, “When people don’t want to learn, impunity will kill you.” 
Wike’s remarks have sparked discussions about his role within the PDP and his approach to governance, especially as Nigeria approaches the 2027 general elections.
