The Concerned PDP League (CPDPL) says the antics of pro-Governor Siminalaiyi Fubara apologists, Rep. Ikenga Imo -Ugochinyere, and Deji Adeyanju, to set President Bola Tinubu and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Minister, Nyeson Wike-, against each other will fall.
The group accused Rep. Imo-Ugochinyere and Adeyanju, of embarking on a calculated, and deliberate misinformation, and smear campaign against Wike, with the aim to set President Tinubu against the minister.
This was contained in a statement, jointly signed by
Alhaji Tasiu Muhammad, the group’s National Secretary and Comrade Justina Dashi, acting Director of Publicity and Communication.
The group said Rep. Imo -Ugochiyere has enjoyed the patronage of Gov. Fubara, by sponsoring lies and propaganda against the FCT minister, since the onset of the political crisis in Rivers State..
“But it seems there’s a transition from him to Adeyanju. We have reliably gathered that Deji Adeyanju himself or via a proxy or group is preparing to address a state of the nation press conference pretentiously titled: “Akpabio vs Natasha and ither matters arising,” at his Wuse 2 office, by 9am tomorrow Friday, the 14th of March, 2025.
“But deliberately, he didn’t include the Rivers State matter, which he is planning to dwell on during the press conference, knowing fully well that that is the main theme for the briefing, considering that the Rivers State governor is bankrolling the expenses.
“Also, Nigerians can recall that, the FCT minister sometimes ago, exposed the hypocrisy of Adeyunju, and how he came to beg Wike to make him the PDP national oublicity secretary.

“The FCT minister in his usual characteristic manner, blatantly said no to him, that he lacks the capacity to be PDP spokesman, and that was below the belt blow that Deji has not recovere from.
“Ever since then, he is bent on castigating Wike, and is acideously working towards setting President Tinubu against Minister Wike, which he hopes to achieve with his tomorrow’s press conference.
“We want to assure Adeyanju that his press conference, to attack the FCT minister, will be of no consequence and has already failed.
“Therefore, we urge Nigerians and the general public to disregard Adejunju’s sponsored press conference, aimed at making the minister look bad before Mr. President, and the general public.
“We want to advise the Rivers State governor that sponsoring propagandists, and commercial activists will not help his situation, which his minders and new found friends has put him in, in any way,” the group said.
