“The G-5 PDP Governors first met in Wike’s residence for a few hours before heading to the Villa to meet with the president.
“Exact details of what was discussed isn’t available to me at the moment, but from discussions held during the initial meeting at Wike’s residence, it was all about finding accommodation for the former governors in the scheme of things and of course, how they can work together .”
This meeting is notable given its timing, occurring just 24 hours before the Imo State PDP governorship campaign in Owerri and amid growing tension regarding the position of the party Secretary.
The former Governors present at the meeting included Nyesom Wike, the immediate past Rivers State Governor who now serves as the FCT minister; former Benue State Governor Samuel Ortom; former Enugu State Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi; his Abia State counterpart, Okezie Ikpeazu; and the current Oyo State Governor, Seyi Makinde.
