The camp of Governor Nyesom Wike insists Peoples Democratic
Party (PDP) national chairman, Iyorchia Ayu, worked for the emergence of Atiku
Abubakar.
The former vice president won the presidential ticket at the
PDP primary, which was held in late May in Abuja.
After a meeting early Wednesday morning, the Wike camp said
Ayu exposed himself through the comment he made after Atiku was declared the
winner.
In attendance were Board of Trustees (BoT) member Bode George, Prof Jerry Gana, Oyo Governor Seyi Makinde, ex-Governors Segun Mimiko (Ondo), Donald Duke (Cross River), Jonah Jang (Plateau), Ayo Fayose (Ekiti), among others.
In his remarks after George read out a communique, Jang
described Ayu, a former Senate President, as a biased referee.
“For Ayu to go and embrace Tambuwal, calling him the hero of
the convention, means there was a private arrangement with Tambuwal to
shortchange other contestants, including Governor Wike
“Here was a referee who helped one of the sides to score a
goal,” the former Senator said.
The aggrieved PDP stalwarts declared that until Ayu leaves,
they would not take part in Atiku’s presidential campaign.
