Some PDP Governors headed by Nyesom Wike |
The group of five Governors identified as- G5 in the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), seeking justice, equity and fairness in the Party's leadership have travelled to Spain for a crucial meeting.
It was gathered that the group, led by the Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, left the Country for Madrid on Friday night.
Others in the team are the Governors: Seyi Makinde (Oyo); Okezie Ikpeazu (Abia) and Samuel Ortom (Benue).
It was learnt Enugu Governor, Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi, might join the team later.
The G5, led by Wike has been calling for the resignation of the PDP’s National Chairman, Dr. Iyorchia Ayu, as their minimum condition for peace in the party and to join the presidential campaign council of the party’s Presidential Candidate, Atiku Abubakar.
The aggrieved Governors have insisted that it is unfair for the party to have the national chairman and presidential candidate from the northern extraction ahead of the poll.
Wike led the team to Spain after a live media chat in Port Harcourt where he heaped more allegations on Ayu maintaining that the National Chairman lacked integrity to lead the party’s campaign for 2023.
Recall that Daily News has earlier report that Wike and his team has been banned by the PDP's BoT from granting any Press Interview regarding the Crisis rocking the party.
