Wike’s Strategic Move in the PDP
Reports suggest that Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), is making strategic moves to solidify his position within the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
His latest move involves aligning with former Senate President, Bukola Saraki, to enhance his influence within the party.
The Notable Meeting in Abuja
A viral video surfaced, capturing a moment in which Nyesom Wike was seen preparing a meal in his kitchen while hosting the former Senate President, Bukola Saraki, at his residence in Abuja.

Past Rivalry and Political History
It’s worth noting that both Saraki and Wike were contenders in the PDP presidential primary. However, they both lost to former Vice President, Atiku Abubakar. Despite their past rivalry, Saraki was appointed to the PDP/Atiku’s campaign team,

The meeting between Wike and Saraki is seen as a crucial step in this strategy.
It is believed that Wike’s group aims to align with influential figures who can shape the party’s future leadership.
Saraki, known for his reconciliation skills and ability to bridge gaps, is seen as a valuable asset in this endeavor.
More Support for Saraki Expected According to sources, this meeting is just the beginning of the Wike group’s efforts.
They plan to garner support for Saraki from more governors and senators within their group. Many have reportedly already shown interest in supporting Saraki’s political ambitions.
Clarification on Saraki’s Ambitions
While there is speculation about Bukola Saraki’s interest in chairing the party, sources suggest that he has not yet made a final decision regarding this role.
The Importance of Reconciliation and Trust
Saraki is recognized as a reconciliator and a neutral figure with the capacity and resources to rebuild the party.
