The five aggrieved Peoples Democratic Party governors have met with the All Progressives Congress presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu in London, ...

“The truth of the matter is that the struggle of the G-5 governors is not based on the internal issues of the PDP alone. “A presidential campaign council is not the same thing as the party hierarchy. The man who is doing this is supposedly the national publicity secretary of the Labour Party. That is a better description of the relationship.” They should know that the provisions of the constitution are applicable to every member of the party. I don’t think there is any fear at all if Wike decides to extend an olive branch to us and if he decides to make rapprochement or overtures to the APC. “We want to believe that they are in the United Kingdom for vacation and so reacting to speculations is not what we should be doing now. They may say that some people like us are not competent to speak on the internal affairs of that party. We are still thinking that we will be able to have a common ground for this election, but if those things happen, then it will take a position of issue of discipline. He stated, “The PDP is a party of constitution, rules and procedures. Should they take this step they have been working on for a while now and the party will do what is necessary. For now, we are only waiting for the G-5 governors to make the official pronouncement in January.”

But the more the party tolerated the excesses of the governors, the more emboldened they have become. Many have urged the party to move against Wike and his group by expelling them for unpardonable anti party activities but the party has reframed from taking such actions.
