Governor of Rivers state, Nyesom
Wike, has reportedly resigned his appointment as the South-South zonal
coordinator of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential campaign
council.
Saturday Sun reports that Wike’s
letter of resignation as Atiku Abubakar’s campaign coordinator for the
South-South was ready and would be submitted today.
It is understood that Wike is not
comfortable with the way things are going in the campaign, especially lack of
consultations of appropriate party leaders before vital decisions and
appointments are made.
The PDP had in October named
Senate President, Bukola Saraki, as Director-General of the Atiku Presidential
Campaign Council, along with prominent leaders of the party as zonal
coordinators.
Announcing their appointment, the
party’s national chairman, Uche Secondus, had said, “After due consultation
with party stakeholders, PDP, under my leadership has approved the following as
members of Atiku Presidential Campaign Council.”
Apart from the Senate President,
Ayo Fayose, Aminu Tambuwal, Ibrahim Dankwambo, Samuel Ortom, Nyesom Wike and
Dave Umahi were named as zonal coordinators.
While Governor Aminu Tambuwal was
named as the Zonal Coordinator for NorthWest, Governor Ibrahim Dankwambo was
appointed Zonal Coordinator for North-East, Governor Samuel Ortom for
North-Central, Governor Dave Umahi for South-East, Nyesom Wike for South-South
and former Governor Ayodele Fayose as Zonal Coordinator for the SouthWest.
