The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, presidential candidate,
Atiku Abubakar has been urged to close ranks with Governor Nyesom Wike of
Rivers State if he wants to win the 2023 presidential election.
Wike and Atiku have been at war since the conclusion of PDP
presidential primaries.
The governor, who came second during the presidential
primaries, fell out with Atiku after he picked Governor Ifeanyi Okowa as his
running mate.
Reacting to the face-off, a former Plateau State Governor,
Jonah Jang, cautioned Atiku against ignoring Wike.
Jang said ignoring Wike’s team was a wrong political move
that wouldn’t guarantee Atiku’s victory in 2023.
He spoke in Rivers State during the flag-off of the
construction of Omagwa internal roads in the State.
According to Jang: “I want to call on our presidential
candidate, Atiku Abubakar, to close ranks with all members, particularly
members of your (Wike) group of which I’m proudly one. Doing this will
guarantee victory in 2023 general elections.
“These men and women, as I have said, worked hard to build
this party and they cannot just be wished away overnight.
“We need to come together, settle our differences by
recognising that you need each and every one of us for you to win the general
election.”
