Chief Ebenezer Babatope a former Minister of Transport who was also a member of the Board of Trustees of the Peoples Democratic Party has urged Nyeson Wike, the Rivers State Governor to stop making outrageous demands from the party.

Babatope stated that Wike's demands that Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, the presidential candidate of PDP, serve only one term if he wins were not correct.

Babatope stated that politicians can meet wherever they like and could do what is best for them in an interview with one of our correspondents in Ibadan.

However, he appealed to them to not jeopardize the party's chances for victory in 2023.

He added, “God will judge them if they do anything to trample upon the victory which God Almighty has already given the PDP in the next year election. We must all work to keep the victory of the party. On the demand that Atiku should spend one term, who knows who will be alive tomorrow?

“Nobody knows who will be alive tomorrow morning. Why is he (allegedly) saying Atiku should spend only one term? The power to determine who will be alive or not belongs to God Almighty alone. It lies with God almighty, the maker of mankind. So, nobody should seek to play God.

“I want to appeal to Wike; he should kindly stop all these things and settle down to ensure that there is peace within the party.”
