Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has finally met with Governor Nyesom Wike in London.
Amid the crisis rocking the PDP ahead of the 2023 general election, Governor Wike and his associates demanded the resignation of PDP National Chairman, Dr Iyorchia Ayu, as a condition for them to campaign for Atiku.
They said all top positions in the PDP are being occupied by northerners, noting that Ayu, who is from the North-Central, must resign as a concession to the South.
The supporters of the governor stressed that Atiku from North-East must honour his promise that once the party’s presidential standard-bearer emerges from the North, a southerner would be the national chairman.
The PDP had since set up a reconciliation panel to resolve the crisis between the former Vice-President and Wike.
