The Publisher Nigeria reports that Wike made the statement during a media chat in Abuja on Sunday.
Wike accused Wabara of being part of those fanning the crisis in the PDP, stressing he would have disowned him if he was his father.
The Minister blamed the actions and utterances of some PDP leaders for the party’s backwardness.
While faulting the leaders’ decisions, the former Governor of Rivers State said it was wrong for PDP leaders to desperately seek the removal of the Acting National Chairman, Umar Damagum, and the National Secretary, Sam Anyanwu, despite court rulings.
He said, “If Wabara were my father, I would have disowned him. He doesn’t deserve to be a leader. No wonder Obasanjo made a presidential broadcast about his acts of corruption.”
“It doesn’t bother me at all. The matter is in the hands of the courts, and the party constitution is clear.
“If they resign, they must be replaced through elections. The fact that someone is trying to bypass this process doesn’t surprise me.
“Some people are trying to manipulate the situation, but it will not succeed. The matter is in the courts, and we should respect the rule of law. We need to focus on resolving issues within the party, particularly with the upcoming convention.
“Instead of stoking crises, the convention should take place as scheduled in December, and we should usher in a new executive.”
