The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, has said that he has no plans to leave the Peoples Democratic Party, despite the ongoing internal crisis, adding that he will stay and fight.

The immediate past Rivers State governor stated this during a media parley on Wednesday in Abuja to mark his first anniversary as FCT minister.

Responding to questions about the possibility of his exit from the party in the light of the ongoing crisis both in the Rivers PDP and at the national level, Wike said he would not run from the fight, or the “vampires” in the party.

“I’ve told you I do not run from any fight. I will stay there; I will fight it out. Who am I going to run from? The vampires? How can you say that?” he responded.

The minister also said that he could join the All Progressives Congress if he wanted, noting that he maintained his integrity by refusing to support the PDP presidential candidate during the 2023 elections, while still delivering wins for the party in Rivers.

“Can I tell you something? Anybody who knows me knows too well if I want to join APC today; when I was in then PDP, didn’t I say that I would not support your presidential candidate? Did I do it secretly?

“All those people who are saying those things, did they bring one member who has won an election? Did the PDP not win? I stood my ground on the principle that if this is not done, we will not accept it. People should know you for something. Integrity is very important,” he said.
