The National Working Committee (NWC) of the main opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is currently meeting over the revocation order on its permanent headquarters in the Central Business Area of Abuja.

Daily Trust reports that the Minister of Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, revoked the land of the PDP national secretariat over non-payment of ground rent.

The revocation notice was contained in a letter dated March 13, 2025.

The letter titled “Notice of right of occupancy with file no: MISC 81346 in respect of plot no: 243 within central area district, Abuja,” was signed by the Director, Land istration (FTC), Chijioke Nwankwoeze.

Nwankwoeze attributed the decision to the failure of the opposition party to pay the annual ground rents from January 1, 2006, to January 1, 2025.

Meanwhile, the National Publicity Secretary of the PDP, Debo Ologunagba, has described the revocation order as “a drive towards totalitarianism and attempt to stifle opposition”.

Ologunagba who disclosed that the order also extended to the temporary and permanent offices, noted that the move is a threat to democracy.

He said, “The attempt by the All Progressives Congress, (APC) government to revoke the Right of Occupancy of the National Secretariat of the PDP is highly condemnable .

“It is aimed at stifling opposition in this country and of course a drive towards totalitarianism. And it is a threat to democracy. The NWC is now meeting and I will get back to you shortly with a detailed response of our party to this development.

“To let you know, how despicable this action is , it is both properties. Both the new one under construction and the one the PDP has been occupying for almost two decades- the Wadata Plaza. It is an attempt to stifle opposition.”

Wike is just slamming PDP all over the place.
From Secretariat wahala,to Rivers State.
His winning on all fronts.
Better to make peace with your perceived enemies,else,the consequences might be too grave to comprehend.

PDP don dey drag this issue for social media too much.

They should just go to court and stop this nonsense.

Judiciary is really protecting Wike

what's that thing that wike has against pdp that has made it seem impossible for pdp as a party to penalize him? ......Now see what he has caused his party in rivers state....

Over how years ground rent unpaid

If they truly have balls, this is the best time to sack and condemn Wike. They should do the needful before Wike finish them totally.

Go to your Nonsense Court Infiltrated by your Corrupt Judges already Bought over.

For not paying ground rent for 20 years

Out of office for just 10 years and the party has gone broke.

They should start using Atiku's house as office.

Why dey no pay the rent to avoid all these dramas? When dey fully know say wike no send anybody

Wike is proving to be an outright enemy of PDP. Spitting on their face. Well nothing last forever.

Una owe rent abi una no owe rent? If u guys are not cowards every sane person expect wike to have been dismissed from PDP since… bunch of clowns

Wike the wicked.
All his enemies don't know peace.

Imagine a notable political party involving in failure to pay the annual ground rents from January till dates

I can’t just imagine 🤷‍♀️

Xsd

Yes or no, you did not pay for years

Go and pay your ground rent and stop disturbing us with the outcome of your meeting. What nonsense.

Wike has held PDP by the ball again. If they attempt to suspend him now, he'd just go straight and demolish the building altogether.

The guy is the strongest and wisest politician form the South South but I have so much dialled for his style of politics.

They need to call another meeting. One of their govs has just been suspended with SOE declared in his state.

This is very commendable from the FCT minister, nobody is above the law

He is using Grade 1 Juju on them. Shame to PDP, Cowards. Suspend Wike, let heaven Fall. Nonsense

Have you paid or not.

Eeyaaah!

Instead, make una go find how una go settle dey matter na Press release una still dey do.
Una never learn from Fubara ordeal abi?

PDP don turn to joke.

How will a party that claims to be a major opposition party allow their secretariat to accumulate 19 years unpaid ground rent? This is beyond Wike at this point.
