Rivers State governor, Nyesom Wike, says the G5 governors of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) will soon foreclose the possibility of reconciliation.
Since the presidential primary of the PDP, there has been a crisis in the party over calls for Iyorchia Ayu to step down as national chairman of the party.
The calls, championed by Wike and his allies, are based on the grounds that the PDP presidential candidate and national chairman cannot be from the same region.
In an interview with the British Broadcasting Corporation, (BBC) on Friday, the Rivers State governor said there will be no coming back once the G5 governors decide on their choice of a presidential candidate.
The point I am trying to tell you is that PDP should have their opportunity, because there will come a time the door will be shut and nothing will happen. If that day comes, if heaven wants to come down, let it come down, he said.
Nobody should threaten anyone. If we (G5) take the decision today that we will not support the PDP candidate, we will give reasons why we will not support him and nothing anybody will do about it. They should better be careful.
Recall that in December 2022, Wike had said he will start campaigning for his preferred presidential candidate in January, but when asked about it during the interview, he said strategies are being put in place.
Wike also reiterated his stance that the G5 governors wont leave the PDP to any other party.
