Bode George has announced the date for Wike and other troublemakers will be expelled from PDP.
NewsOnline Nigeria reports that a chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Chief Bode George, has said that those who cannot abide by the rules and regulations of the party would be thrown out.
This Nigeria news platform understands that George said this would be one of the key decisions of the National Executive Council, NEC, of the party when they meet later this month.
According to him, most politicians in the party were only interested in their personal gain and showed little or no interest in the wellbeing of the people.

Speaking on Channels Television Sunday Politics, the elder statesman said the NEC of the main opposition party is now ready to take a decisive action which would see the PDP return to the party it used to be.
He said, “As politicians, is it only for their own personal gain that they are looking at, What about the impact?
“What is democracy? It’s all about the management of the resources of the land for the benefit of the people. That is not what they have done now.
“And I am hoping that by the 27th of this month we will meet in a closed door and tell ourselves some home truths.
“Those who cannot abide by the rules and regulations of the party, we can throw them out of the party.
“The NEC has the authority and the powers to do that. We should tell ourselves some serious home truths, and come back to the position as laid down by the founding fathers of our party.”
The PDP, which was supposed to provide strong opposition to the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, has done nothing but fight within themselves since after the 2023 general election.
Some members of the party have lamented the party’s inability to punish members even when they publicly declare that they are working for the ruling party while in the PDP.
Just a few days ago, a former Governor of Rivers State and Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike, said he would remain in the PDP and continue working for President Tinubu’s reelection in 2027.
