MATTERS ARISING!

Wike to Aggrieved PDP Members: You’ll Get Your Due, Come Back

Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) and the National Leader of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Nyesom Wike, has assured aggrieved members of the the party that they will not lose their entitlements if they return, declaring that many who left only did so out of uncertainty and in search of political shelter.

He therefore urged the party leadership to urgently move for reconciliation.

“Chairman and your team should put in place a strong committee to reach out to those who are aggrieved.

"There is room for them to come back, and whatever is due to them will still be given,” Wike said at the 108th National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting of the party held Monday at Wadata Plaza, Abuja.

The former Rivers State governor insisted that the PDP must close ranks quickly, warning that lingering internal wrangling could weaken its chances ahead of future elections.

“In life, there must be a period of crisis. What matters is how we resolve the crisis. Now that we are together, we must not stop at reconciliation,” he said.

Wike also reaffirmed his loyalty to the party, declaring that he has no intention of leaving despite ongoing tensions.

“I have been a member of this party since 1998 and I will not leave. Whatever happens, we will continue to live as members of the PDP,” he stated.

He further called for transparency and openness in party affairs, saying this would rebuild confidence and attract back those who had drifted away.

“If you engage them, they will understand and support the party. There is need for openness so that we can achieve the unity we desire,” he added, while expressing confidence in the party’s legal team.

Earlier, PDP National Chairman, Abdulrahman Mohammed, signalled a fresh start for the opposition party, declaring that the era of uncertainty was over.

According to him, the party will strictly follow the Electoral Act and guidelines of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) in conducting its congresses.

“The era of uncertainty is behind us. The era of strategy, consultation, and electoral preparation has begun,” he said, promising transparent and credible congresses across all levels.

Also speaking, Chairman of the Board of Trustees (BoT), Senator Mao Ohuabunwa, stressed that unity must remain the party’s top priority.

He urged members to bury their differences, warning that there was no room for exclusion if the PDP must regain its footing nationally.

Ohuabunwa also called for discipline and strict adherence to the party’s constitution, while commending reforms such as the e-registration initiative aimed at strengthening internal processes and repositioning the party for the challenges ahead.

OLGA PRESS STATEMENT!!!

UPDATE ON ₦100 MILLION UNDERGRADUATE SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM BY BONNY LOCAL GOVERNMENT COUNCIL

The Bonny Local Government Council wishes to address recent public concerns regarding the delay in the disbursement of the ₦100 Million Undergraduate Scholarship Fund approved for students of Bonny origin.

We acknowledge the concerns expressed by well meaning members of the public and the student community, and we wish to assure all stakeholders that the Council is currently at the verification stage of the scholarship process. This stage involves the careful screening of all applications and the compilation of a credible and comprehensive database of successful candidates. The objective is to ensure transparency, accountability, and to prevent cases of duplication, impersonation, or the inclusion of ineligible persons.

As this scholarship initiative is the first of its kind at the Local Government level, the verification exercise has revealed a number of discrepancies that require proper clarification. These include incorrect or incomplete bank account details, inconsistencies in submitted information, and in some cases, invalid or unverifiable admission documents. The Council is working closely with representatives of the student community to resolve these issues in order to ensure that only qualified beneficiaries are captured in the final list.

While we appreciate the concerns raised by the public, we respectfully appeal for patience and understanding as the Council completes this important verification process. Establishing an accurate database for over one thousand Bonny students is critical to the integrity and sustainability of this scholarship program.

We wish to reassure the public that upon completion of the verification exercise, which is expected soon, the Council will proceed with the next phase of disbursement. Each of the 1,000 approved students will receive the sum of ₦100,000, as earlier announced during the official launch of the scholarship fund.

BONNY LG CHAIRMAN HAILS PRESIDENT TINUBU ON TEMPORARY OPENING OF THE BONNY–BODO ROAD

…Meets Minister of Works Umahi in Abuja, conveys the expectations of the people

The Chairman of Bonny Local Government Area, Hon. Abinye Blessing Pepple, DSSRS, has expressed profound gratitude to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu on the Bonny-Bodo road project as it nears completion for commissioning in the first quarter of 2026.

He stated this in Abuja during a meeting with the Honourable Minister of Works, Engr. David Umahi. The Council Chairman also conveyed the expectations of the people of Bonny regarding the temporary opening of the road this festive season.

The meeting which is in response to public concerns over the delayed temporary opening of the 37.9km road connecting Bonny to Port Harcourt main town, was also an opportunity to brief the Federal Government on the Local Government’s preparedness for the successful opening of the road.

The Honourable Minister of Works, Engr. David Umahi, confirmed that he will undertake a final joint inspection of the Bonny–Bodo Road on Monday, December 8, 2025, together with the Local Government and project contractor Julius Berger Nigeria, as part of ongoing preparations for its temporary opening to the public.

Minister Umahi also assured the Council Chairman of President Tinubu’s readiness to open the road temporarily to public use after the inspection.

The Bonny-Bodo road project was first conceived in 1978 during the Administration of Commander Alfred Ditte Spiff, then Military Governor of Rivers State, and was captured in the Rivers State master plan. In 2017, the project was flagged off by Vice President Yemi Osinbajo after the Federal Government, Julius Berger, and NLNG entered into a tripartite Public Private Partnership agreement to fund the construction of the road.

In 2024, President Tinubu approved an additional N280 billion to ensure the project is completed and not abandoned again. Chairman Pepple extends appreciation to the Honorable Minister of Works, Engr. David Umahi for his tireless efforts to complete the project under the Renewed Hope Agenda of President Tinubu.
