Police unseal Abuja PDP secretariat as Wike faction takes control

Nigeria Police unsealed PDP national secretariat at Wadata Plaza and campaign office at Legacy House in Abuja today, granting control to the faction aligned with FCT Minister Nyesom Wike. The factional National Chairman, Abdulrahman Mohammed, confirmed police followed "duly issued court orders" to hand over the properties to the Mohammed-led National Working Committee with Samuel Anyanwu as National Secretary. Police initially sealed both locations in November 2025 after violent clashes between rival factions. The Turaki-aligned faction criticized the move as "contemptuous," arguing the judgment is under appeal, but urged members to remain peaceful. This development resolves a 5-month internal crisis that has paralyzed the PDP's operations, potentially shifting power dynamics ahead of future elections. How might this realignment affect your political affiliations or campaign strategy as the 2027 elections approach?
