Former Chairman of the Nigerian Electricity Regulatory Commission (NERC), Dr. Sam Amadi, has declared that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), destroyed itself as a result of dependence on the financial influence of Mr Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).
Amadi, a respected public affairs analyst, who stated this while commenting on the defection of Governor Peter Mbah of Enugu State from the PDP to the All Progressives Congress (APC), pointedly said the PDP destroyed itself with the “love of Wike’s money”.
Amadi, who took to his X handle on Tuesday, said that he does not in any way blame Governor Mbah for taking the steps to join the APC and dump PDP.
This is as he claimed that for now APC remains the best organised and sensible political party in the country, but with a “bad” presidential candidate.
Amadi also said that Mr. Peter Obi of the Labour Party (LP), on the other hand remains the best person to save Nigeria, adding however, that the big question is the platform he needs to use.
In the words of Amadi; “I do not blame Peter Mba for dumping @OfficialPDPNig for the @OfficialAPCNg. APC is the best organized and sensible party.
“But it has a bad presidential candidate. @PeterObi is the best guy to save Nigeria now. But which party now?.”
Governor Mbah on Tuesday, October 14, 2025, formally defected from the PDP to the APC, and emphasised that the move was necessitated to connect the South-Eastern state to the central government.
