Atiku And Wike Will Reconcile — PDP BoT Cautions Members 

The board of trustees (BoT) of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has asked members to remain calm and avoid stirring up confusion in the party.

Gatekeepers News reports that the chairman of the PDP BoT, Walid Jibrin gave the advice in a statement.

He said the party’s leadership is working on resolving the rift between Atiku Abubakar, presidential candidate of the party, and the governor of Rivers State, South-South Nigeria, Nyesom Wike.

“I wish to call on all members of PDP and all Nigerians to remain calm and never create bad blood and confusion in the state of our party noting that all efforts are on the ground for reconciliation between [Nyesom] Wike, the party and the presidential candidate, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar,” the statement reads.

“What is happening now should never be categorised as a problem but as a misunderstanding within the party.

“In this period leading to the 2023 elections, we should concentrate on how to win all positions to be contested and seriously adhere to the provision of the party constitution.

“My strong advice is for us to give strong support to the present reconciliation committee set up to resolve all issues.

“Thereafter, the BoT, the highest advisory organ of the party, will give more encouragement leading to greater success for the PDP.”
