…the rest is for NWC to decide
The governorship candidate of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in Kaduna State, Isa Mohammed Ashiru has revealed that the lingering crisis tearing the main opposition party apart has been resolved.
TheNewsGuru com, (TNG) reports Ashiru revealed this hours after he alongside 16 other governorship candidates of the party visited Nyesom Wike, Rivers State Governor, at his private residence in Rumueprikon, Obio-Akpor Local Government Area hinted that the rest was left for the party’s National Working Committee, NWC, to take a decision, with a resolve that they were prepared to meet with the NWC for further assistance.
Some of the governorship candidates who were at the meeting included those from Katsina, Sokoto, Jigawa, and 14 other states.
Speaking after the meeting which was held behind closed doors, Ashiru said the lingering crisis, which has stalled the formation of the party’s presidential campaign council and has kept Wike away from the activities of the party, has been resolved.
He said, “It was (meeting) fruitful and an open discussion with sincerity. We are home and dry. We discussed issues that border on the situation within the party.”
The details of the meeting were never revealed and when quizzed, Ashiru said, “We are through. We have discussed with the presidential candidate.
Recall that the crisis in the party started after its presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, chose Delta State Governor, Ifeanyi Okowa, as his running mate instead of Wike after the committee set by the party repeatedly endorsed the Rivers Governor.
