Former Benue State Governor, Senator Gabriel Suswam, has warned that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) risks collapse before the 2027 general elections if its leadership fails to take decisive steps to resolve the ongoing internal crisis.
The party is currently grappling with disputes over the national secretary position, while also contending with tensions between the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, Nyesom Wike, and the suspended Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara.
Speaking on Arise Television’s ‘The Morning Show’ on Tuesday, Senator Suswam said the opposition party is currently in the Intensive Care Unit and may die if the right medicine is not applied.
He said many party members are disenchanted and want to see the PDP’s ultimate end.
Suswam added that the recent effort by PDP governors and ex-governors, led by former Senate President Bukola Saraki, to rescue the party would determine whether there would be light at the end of the tunnel.
The ex-governor said, “A lot of people are hanging on, waiting to see the ultimate end of this party.
Whether there is light at the end of the tunnel in the efforts made by Senator Saraki that will be seen in the next two weeks. For now, I would say that PDP, is it in the hospital? Yes. Is it in ICU to some extent? Yes, it is. Can it be rescued? Yes, if the proper medicine is applied.”
He further affirmed that likening the party’s situation to ICU suggests a 50–50 survival chance, adding that if the Saraki-led effort failed, the PDP might cease to exist.
