Former Vice President of Nigeria, Atiku Abubakar, reportedly convened a closed-door meeting with key allies from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to strategize on thwarting former Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike’s bid to control the party’s leadership, according to a reliable source.
Recently, Atiku attended a significant meeting of PDP leaders and stakeholders in Abuja, where he emphasized its productivity and collaborative energy.
The objective behind this approach was to prevent any interference from conflicting factions within the party.
In the run-up to the 2023 presidential elections, the G5-governors, led by Nyesom Wike, had demanded Ayu’s resignation as national chairman after Atiku Abubakar emerged as the PDP’s presidential candidate.
