Acting National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Umar Damagum, has vowed to sanction the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, and others for alleged anti-party activities during the 2023 general elections.<\/p>\n

Damagum made this known during a press conference in Abuja on Tuesday, stating that the former Governor of Rivers State is not above the party and would be sanctioned at the appropriate time.<\/p>\n

He said that, there is a need to stabilise PDP and not to plunge it into another crisis due to the ongoing litigations in the party.<\/p>\n

Damagum said: \u201cOur stand about Wike, I have always said this thing that as long as you are a member of the PDP, there is a time for everything. My duty is to stabilise this party and not to cause crisis. And I will continue to do that within the confines of reason.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen things go out of hand, we will act. But meanwhile, we still see it within the ambit of the law. Mind you, we have other litigation going on in this party and we won\u2019t want to plunge our party into another crisis.<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd let me tell you something, it\u2019s not only Wike, there are other people who worked against this party. When we get to that level we will sanction everybody. If Wike believes he is above this party, we will be able to show him that he is not above this party.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey are to review what happened in 2023 and come out with a report not only about one person, but every person who has in one way or another engaged in anti-party. Then after that, we will see what kind of measure to take.\u201d<\/p>\n
