PDP crisis: Wike is gone, Atiku dismisses the idea of Ayu resigning.

Ibekimi Oriamaja Reports

Atiku Abubakar, the Peoples Democratic Party’s (PDP) nominee for president in 2023, said he is no longer concerned about the party’s ongoing leadership crisis.

Remember how the governors of Benue, Enugu, Abia, and Oyo State, as well as Nyesom Wike, the governor of Rivers State, and Samuel Ortom, Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi, Okezie Ikpeazu, and Seyi Makinde, the governors of Enugu, each demanded the resignation of the party’s national chairman, Iyorchia Ayu.

Wike and the other four disgruntled governors had pledged to withhold their support for Atiku in 2023 until Ayu resigned from his role as the party’s national chairman.

After several meetings with Wike ended in failure, party stakeholders’ attempts to get things back to normal failed miserably.

Speaking on the subject, the former vice president told VOA Hausa that he has moved on and that changing the party’s leadership at this time is not conceivable.

“We have not yet found a solution. But now that we’ve moved on, I’m not concerned about that anymore.

Atiku added that it was inappropriate to discuss a party leadership transition at this time because elections were drawing near.
