There are indications that the current internal wranglings
in the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, may not be over any time soon.
This is following the invitation by the Rivers State
Governor Nyesom Wike to Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of the Labour
Party, LP, to commission one of the projects executed by his administration in
the state.
The announcement was disclosed by Dr Yunusa Tanko,
spokesperson for the Obi/Datti presidential campaign.
Recall that Governor Wike is not new to inviting members
from the opposition, especially from the All Progressives Congress, APC, to
commission projects in his State. An act, which has not gone down well with the
PDP.
The governor had in August this year invited the Governor of
Lagos State, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, a member of APC, to commission a flyover
project, at the popular Waterlines junction on Aba road, sparking rumors of his
defection to the ruling APC and readiness to work for Bola Ahmed Tinubu of
APC’s candidature.
Wike, currently leading a group of G5 governors that has
Samuel Ortom of Benue State, Seyi Makinde of Oyo State, Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia
State, Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of Enugu State as members, recently indicated his group
might be moving toward reconciliation with the Presidential candidate of PDP,
Atiku Abubakar, after months of bickering.
According to the invite, the event is slated for 17th
November, 2022 and the project to be commissioned identified as Nkpolu-
Oroworukwu Flyover Bridge project in Rivers State.
Sharing the invite on his Twitter handle, Tanko wrote, “We
are inching closer to reclaiming Nigeria for the Nigerian People……….. Join us
Rivers State People!!!. We keep moving Obidently & Yusfuly. Destination Aso
villa.”
