London-PDP's Presidential Flag bearer, Atiku Abubakar In Talks With Nyesom Wike, Seeks Support. Former President Obasanjo Meets Peter Obi, Nyesom Wike, Samuel Ortom, Others...


Former Vice-President Atiku Abubakar, the Peoples Democratic Party’s presidential candidate, on Thursday met with the Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, in London as part of efforts to resolve the crisis with the governor.

In respect to the the ongoing reconciliation, the PDP presidential candidate has called on his supporters and all stakeholders of the party to avoid making statements that were capable of compromising the process.

According to him, such reconciliation would further strengthen the party and bring all its leaders together.

The former Vice President said these in a statement signed by his Media Adviser, Paul Ibe, in Abuja, on Thursday.

He said, “It has become imperative to appeal to all party members, leaders and everyone related to, connected with or associated with the presidential candidate of the PDP, Atiku Abubakar,  to desist from making comments that potentially reduce the optics of PDP’s image as a united political party.

"This appeal becomes necessary in order to call the attention of party leaders and members to the diversionary antics of the ruling All Progressives Congress which, in manufacturing a false impression of division within the PDP, aims to hoodwink the Nigerian public to overlook the monumental failures of the ruling party.’’

Also in the news, earlier on Thursday in London, the United Kingdom, former President Olusegun Obasanjo met Governor Nyesom Wike and the Labour Party’s presidential candidate, Peter Obi. Also present at that meeting were allies of the Rivers State governor,  including governors Seyi Makinde of Oyo State; Samuel Ortom of Benue State; Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia State and former Cross River State Governor, Donald Duke.

The Spokesperson for the Peter Obi Support Network, Onwuasoanya Jones, confirmed the meeting.

He said, “I can confirm that Peter Obi met with these PDP governors and our former President, His Excellency Chief Olusegun Obasanjo,  in London and I can tell you that this is one out of several such meetings that have been held and will still be held as we approach the 2023 elections.

“Of course, the discussion is centred on salvaging our dear country from an imminent collapse, and there is a consensus among Nigerian patriots that Peter Obi is the most reliable of the candidates to drive this vision.”
