- Sani hinged his assertion on PDP’s approval of former Rivers state governor, Nyesom Wike, inclusion in president Bola Tinubu’s cabinet
- He stated that the PDP has no business challenging Tinubu’s victory in court if the party truly endorsed Wike’s appointment as minister
Former lawmaker and social critic, Shehu Sani, has asserted that his party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) doesn’t have any moral justification to contest the outcome of the presidential election in court.
Sani hinged his assertion on PDP’s approval of former Rivers state governor, Nyesom Wike, inclusion in president Bola Tinubu’s cabinet.
He made his position known in a post on his social media platform, X, formerly known as Twitter, on Tuesday.
He stated that the PDP has no business challenging Tinubu’s victory in court if the party truly endorsed Wike’s appointment as minister.
“If the PDP has approved and endorsed its members joining the Government, then it has no business being in Court,” Sani said.
The statement came after former Rivers State governor, Nyesom Wike was appointed a minister by President Bola Tinubu.
Wike is of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, and has not tendered any formal resignation.
Wike claimed that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) gave him the green light to accept the ministerial position under Tinubu’s administration.
He spoke following his inauguration on Monday as the minister of the FCT.
“Before this appointment came, I wrote to the national chairman. I wrote to the minority leaders of the House of Reps and Senate,” Wike said.
