    Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike and other governors of the opposition Peoples Democrayic Party ( PDP) have resolved to remain in the party, work for its success in 2023 and resolve whatever crisis they have internally.

    This follows a closed-door emergency meeting held at the Rivers State governor’s lodge in Abuja on Sunday.

    While the agenda of the meeting was not immediately clear, it centred on the festering post-presidential primary crisis which has seen the party divided into two major camps.
    Those at the meeting include Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State, Governor Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia State, Governor Samuel Ortom of Benue State, and Governor of Enugu State Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi.

    Others are former governor of Cross River State Donald Duke, former governor of some Benue State Gabriel Suswam, former Ondo State governor Olusegun Mimiko, former Bayelsa State Governor Seriake Dickson, Ibrahim Idris of Kogi State, and former Plateau State Governor Jonah Jang.
    Senate minority leader Philip Aduda was also at the meeting with some members of the PDP National Assembly caucus.
    A source told reporters that non of the governors or chieftains is leaving the party.
    He said all have resolved to work together to address whatever internal crisis exist and support the party and the candidate towards victory in 2023.
