Aminu Wali Alleges APC Is Provoking PDP’s Internal Crisis, Criticizes Wike’s Undermining Tactics

Wali made this claim during a recent interview with the BBC.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
The veteran politician, who is a founding member of the PDP, suggested that the APC is deliberately sowing discord among opposition parties to destabilize the country’s political landscape.
Wali highlighted the ongoing disputes within the PDP, pointing to difficulties in reconciling the executive committee’s differences and resolving the party’s internal issues.
Although the APC has not openly admitted to its involvement, Wali firmly believes it is deliberately amplifying tensions to weaken the opposition’s unity. “The APC is certainly influencing the conflicts within some political parties in Nigeria,” he stated.
The former Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, was also implicated by Wali in the current crisis. He pointed to Wike’s actions before, during, and after the 2023 elections, suggesting his closer ties to the APC. Wali criticized Wike’s behavior of undermining the PDP while still being part of it.
As a senior member of the PDP, Wali emphasized that, while guidance can be offered, the responsibility for addressing these issues lies with the party’s leadership. He expressed concern about the failure of the PDP leadership to take decisive steps, stating, “Had the party adhered to its principles, many of the crises we face today could have been avoided.

Investigation into the Leaked Video
-
Court Directive: Following a complaint from the Director of Public Prosecution (DPP), Rotimi Oyedepo (SAN), regarding a video statement that surfaced on the social media platform of influencer “VeryDarkMan” despite a court-imposed restriction, Justice Joyce Abdulmalik ordered the Department of State Services (DSS) to conduct an inquiry.
-
National Security Concerns: The DPP characterized the leak as a national security risk that prejudices the ongoing judicial proceedings, noting the video had already surpassed 6,000 views.
-
Defense Stance: While defense counsel denied involvement in the leak, they held varying views on a probe; some welcomed an investigation, while others, like Sanusi Musa (SAN), cautioned against acting without formal evidence.
-
Judicial Ruling: Invoking Section 232(5) of the Administration of Criminal Justice Act, 2015, Justice Abdulmalik mandated the DSS to identify and bring any responsible parties before the court, noting that such prosecution would be handled separately from the main coup trial.
Trial Testimony and Bail Proceedings
-
Witness Testimony: A prosecution witness, an Army officer codenamed “DDD,” testified that the investigation was conducted by a multi-agency team—including the Army, DSS, DIA, and EFCC—and explicitly denied that the defendants were chained, coerced, or tortured during interrogation.
-
Defense Challenges: During cross-examination, defense lawyers challenged the interrogation process, specifically noting the absence of family members or legal representation during the suspects’ questioning; however, the witness stated no such requests were made by the defendants.
-
Bail Applications: The court heard bail arguments from the defense, which the DPP opposed; Justice Abdulmalik has reserved her ruling on these applications and adjourned the trial-within-trial for the first three defendants until June 25 and June 30.

-
Immigration Status: According to a statement released by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) on their official account, Ajayi had been living in the US illegally for nearly two decades after failing to depart the country following the expiration of his student visa.
-
Criminal History: ICE reported that after abandoning his studies, Ajayi amassed a significant criminal record that includes convictions for domestic violence, trespassing, intimidation, and obstruction. Furthermore, his record includes charges involving kidnapping, rape, and family neglect.
-
Administrative Context: ICE attributed the removal of Ajayi to the immigration enforcement policies of President Donald Trump, noting the administration’s commitment to deporting criminal undocumented immigrants.
-
Missing Details: While the agency confirmed the deportation, they did not specify when it occurred, nor did they provide additional details regarding the jurisdictions of the convictions or the current status of his pending criminal charges.
-
Policy Enforcement: This action reflects the ongoing efforts by the Trump administration to intensify enforcement and increase the number of removals of undocumented individuals with criminal backgrounds across the United States.

Sources close to the widow during her hospitalization state that she insisted her husband was healthy and had no history of either condition prior to their abduction.

Major General Rabe and his wife were abducted on May 30, 2026, while traveling through the Matazu Local Government Area of Katsina State.

The kidnappers, linked to a criminal network led by bandit kingpin Kachalla Muhammad Fulani, had demanded the release of detained associates.
