Beg Wike If You Want To Win 2023 Election – Jonah Jang Sends Warning To Atiku

Mohammed O. Taoheed reports,

Hon. Jonah Jang, a past Governor of Plateau State Governor has told Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, the presidential flag-bearer of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), to reconcile with Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike before the 2023 general elections.

Jang issued this warning on Saturday, saying that failure to have Wike and his team begged might awfully affect Atiku’s luck at the 2023 presidential election.

The former Governor added that ignoring Wike and his team might be a wrong political move but having them on his side will mean emergency for Atiku and his party, the opposition PDP, in the 2023 election.

TrackNews Nigeria covers Jang made the submission in Rivers State at the flagging off of the construction of Omagwa internal roads in the state.

According to Jang: “I want to call on our presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, to close ranks with all members, particularly members of your (Wike) group of which I’m proudly one . Doing this will guarantee victory in 2023 general elections.

“These men and women, as I have said, worked hard to build this party and they cannot just be wished away overnight. We need to come together, settle our differences by recognising that you need each and every one of us for you to win the general election.”

Meanwhile, the former Governor appreciated the indefatigable efforts of Wike in Rivers State despite the worsening economic hardships in the country and globally.

He stated: “At this point, in our nationhood, Nigeria is down with inflation that rates over 18 per cent. Foreign reserves are dwindling by the day, and external debts are at high time.

“We have no infrastructure to show for it. No commensurate economic growth. But here we are, on the 20th day of August 2022, in the Peoples Democratic Party administration in River State, celebrating good governance in the twilight of this (Wike) administration.”
