The five  Peoples Democratic Party governors led by Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike will today; Thursday, meet in London, United Kingdom.

Governor Nyesom Wike, Governors Seyi Makinde (Oyo), Okezie Ikpeazu (Abia), Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi (Enugu) and Samuel Ortom (Benue) recently withdrew their membership of the PDP Presidential Campaign Council, insisting on the removal of the National Chairman of the party, Iyorchia Ayu.

Govenor Wike says He is not happy with the PDP presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar after the latter settled for the Delta State Governor, Ifeanyi Okowa as his running mate despite reportedly having an agreement to run with the Rivers State’s governor on a joint ticket after Wike lost to him in the primary election.

The Governors who were conspicuously absent from the Atiku campaign flag off in Uyo, the Akwa Ibom state capital,  are meeting in London today to take far reaching decisions ahead of the 2023 polls.

It was learnt that Monday’s decision by the party and Atiku to flag off the campaign without Wike and his allies may have informed the latest meeting.

So far, efforts to reconcile Atiku and Wike’s allies have not been successful. The Board of Trustees of the party led by the acting Chairman, Adolphus Wabara, set up a reconciliation committee to intervene in the lingering crisis but have been unable to broker peace as expected.

Wike has vowed to remain in the party, promising however not to have anything to do with the presidential campaigns unless Ayu leaves.
