I should be the one calling for the discipline of these people who violated the party\u2019s constitution, in the way that the party supported rotation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWho will suspend me? I want to dare anybody,\u201d Wike said.<\/p>\n<p>The ex-governor said he informed PDP leadership before he took the ministerial offer of President Bola Tinubu of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).<\/p>\n<p>Wike said he remained a PDP chieftain despite working for the APC government.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI want to support Asiwaju (Tinubu) to finish well,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>He said further that he owed no one an apology for supporting power shift to southern Nigeria.<\/p>\n<p>Wike said, \u201cWe are just waiting for the presidential panel to finish, you will know who actually are those who are working well for the party.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHow can anybody talk about expelling me? A state that brought a governor? A state that brought three senators? A state that produced 32 House of Assembly members? A state that produced 11 out of 13 House of Representatives.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe person that would suspend me is the one that couldn\u2019t produce a governor, is the one that couldn\u2019t produce three senators?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI have not seen that person, with all due respect. Nobody will do it. So, the issue of they will do it does not arise.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"yj6qo\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"adL\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, has dared the leadership of his party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), to suspend or discipline him.
