As the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP crisis continues to nosedive, loyalists of the Rivers Governor Nyesom Wike have advised him not to embark on an unhealthy bus drive that will take him to nowhere.
TheNewsGuru.com, (TNG) reports the larger than life crisis rocking the PDP over the hand picking of a running mate by the presidential candidate of the party, former Vice President Atiku Abubakar continues to nosedive, loyalists of Governor Wike have cautioned him to tactically avoid the party’s Greek gift via a reconciliatory move that will take him to nowhere.
A very close ally of the governor who spoke to TNG under the condition of anonymity said ” Wike should not venture into any deal with the Atiku people as it will take him to nowhere.
“In the first place it was Atiku who promised to make him his running mate and suddenly he(Atiku) derailed and now same man is writing him love letters that he is our jagaban, that is nonesensensical.
“Oh it has now dawned on him that it’s daybreak to further use his head to grind and smoothen the road to Aso Rock then suddenly when the food is ready they will remember that the man is assertive and garrulous.
Another of the Niger Delta vibrant governor, spoke in the same vein saying”oh! they want reconciliation now that the party is wearing the look of a complete northern party, the chairman is from the north, secretary from the north, presidential flag bearer from the north and now Wike who you rubbished twice is now a useful pawn.
“What an insult does Wike look like a fool to them? They say he is assertive but then he was a local government chairman there was no time he fought his governor, as Minister there was no time he fought his principal, as Chief of Staff nobody heard his name then suddenly one Aliyu Babangida that’s a political failure is saying Wike talks too much and Atiku believed such political nonentities.
TNG recalls that before the sudden reconciliation move two former governors, Ayo Fayose and former Governor of Plateau State, Jonah Jang had spat fire on the faces of those giving Wike names.
A serving Governor, Samuel Ortom had equally told Atiku he was not serious about anything as he is busy traveling around the world while his house is on fire.
