Wike fighting to keep PDP away from vampires – Group
*holds prayers for party, National Secretary Anyanwu
More groups have emerged over the weekend in solidarity and support of the National Secretary of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) Senator Samuel Anyanwu and also in applauding the laudable selfless sacrifice of the FCT Minister, Chief Nyesome Wike, to the growth of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP).
The group fondly described the FCT Minister Chief Wike as a straight-forward leader capable of bringing the PDP out from its present quagmire, and maintained that “Wike is not a pretender and cannot be fooled by the desperate undertakers who want to sell the PDP or take it to its early grave.”
This disclosure was made at a family-get-together organized by the PDP Progressives Pillars on Sunday 23rd February, 2025, at the Unity Fountain, Abuja, to seek the face of God and his intervention through prayer for the National Secretary of the party, Senator Samuel Anyanwu.
In a release signed by the leader of group, Hon. Samuel Obande, he hailed the demonstrable commitment of the FCT Minister Chief Nyesome Wike to the growth and continual formidable existence of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP).
The group leader also acknowledged the fact that the Minister has done outstandingly well in uniting the Party and bringing together all discordant tunes. Pointing out his steadfastness and consistent unquantifiable financial contributions and his sacrifice in fostering the growth of the party and enhancing trust, team play, inclusivity and in building confidence along all strata of the party.
He believe that all these are eloquent verifiable evidence of his commitment and unambiguous goodwill and clear intentions to see the PDP back on its feet again against the false judgment of gainsayers and enemies of the Party.
Obande wondered why despite all that the FCT Minister is doing for the PDP, some distractor and mischief makers, are still hell bent on not only pulling him down but instigating campaigns of calumny aimed at destabilizing the fragile unity of the PDP. Describing them as vampires who must be kept away from the Party.
He finally cautioned all enemies of the PDP to stay clear and allow Minister Wike continue and complete his good works for the PDP to evolve into the Party to beat in 2027.

Renewed Hope Group Welcomes Tinubu’s Appointment of Faleke as Deputy Secretary for Party Outreach
The Renewed Hope Advocacy Network (RHAN) has described the appointment of Rt. Hon. James Abiodun Faleke as Deputy Secretary for Party Outreach, Engagement, and Mobilisation of the Renewed Hope Ambassadors (South West zone) as a well-earned recognition of merit, loyalty, and proven capacity.
In a statement released today and signed by its Convener, Opialu M. Opialu, the grassroots organisation praised President Bola Tinubu for entrusting the strategic role to a man widely regarded as one of his most dependable and longest-serving political allies.
“Rt. Hon. James Faleke’s appointment is the logical elevation of a tested hand who has consistently demonstrated exceptional leadership, organisational brilliance, and rock-solid loyalty to President Tinubu and the Renewed Hope project,” Opialu stated.
The statement highlighted Faleke’s critical contribution during the 2023 presidential campaign, where he served as National Secretary of the APC Presidential Campaign Council.
Describing the lawmaker as the engine room coordinator of nationwide mobilisation efforts, the group credited him with bridging ethnic, regional, and ideological divides, galvanising party structures, and sustaining momentum even amid intense opposition.
“Despite daunting challenges, he never flinched. His strategic mind, tireless work ethic, and unshakeable belief in Asiwaju’s vision were decisive factors in delivering the Tinubu-Shettima victory,” the statement added.
RHAN also underscored Hon. Faleke’s legendary loyalty, noting that for over two decades he has remained a consistent pillar of support for President Tinubu across multiple political battles and campaigns.
“In an era when political fidelity is increasingly rare, Rt. Hon. Faleke stands out as a shining example of principle, sacrifice, and steadfastness.
“His faithfulness has inspired countless party members and remains one of the strongest proof to the enduring bond between him and our President,” Opialu remarked.
On the legislative front, the statement celebrated Faleke’s distinguished record as the representative of Ikeja Federal Constituency.
Looking ahead, RHAN expressed confidence that Faleke’s wealth of experience will now supercharge grassroots engagement, strengthen party structures in the South West, and deepen national support for the implementation of President Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda.
“We are convinced that this appointment will inject fresh energy into our mobilisation efforts and set the stage for even greater electoral and governance successes in the years ahead,” Opialu concluded.
The Renewed Hope Advocacy Network wished Rt. Hon. James Abiodun Faleke “resounding success” in his new assignment and prayed for continued wisdom, strength, and divine guidance as he discharges his duties.
