A former Plateau State Governor, Jonah Jang, has urged the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar to close ranks with Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State if he wants to win the 2023 presidential election.
Atiku and wike have been at loggerheads since the conclusion of PDP presidential primaries.
Reacting to the disagreement, Jang cautioned Atiku against ignoring Wike, saying ignoring the governor’s team was a wrong political move that wouldn’t guarantee Atiku’s victory in 2023.
The chieftain of PDP stated this while speaking in Rivers State during the flag-off of the construction of Omagwa internal roads in the State.
According to him: “I want to call on our presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, to close ranks with all members, particularly members of your (Wike) group of which I’m proudly one. Doing this will guarantee victory in 2023 general elections.
“These men and women, as I have said, worked hard to build this party and they cannot just be wished away overnight.
“We need to come together, settle our differences by recognising that you need each and every one of us for you to win the general election.”
