Officials from the Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA), acting on the directive of Minister Nyesom Wike, have sealed off the national headquarters of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
At 2:06 PM, FCTA staff padlocked the entrance to Wadata Plaza, the PDP’s national secretariat located in Abuja’s Wuse Zone 5, according to Persecondnews.
