The presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar has felicitated with Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State on his birthday.
Atiku who took to his verified Twitter account on Tuesday wrote, “As you turn 55 today, I pray that all lines fall in pleasant places for you. Enjoy your special day,”
This is amid his loggerheads with Wike over the chairmanship of Iyorchia Ayu.
Wike with four other PDP governors known as the G5 or the Integrity Group have insisted that Benue-born Ayu must step down for a southerner as a precondition to support the 2023 ambition of Atiku.
However, the leadership of the party has been making efforts to broker peace between the duo with the recent Sunday, as the Director General of Atiku’s Campaign, Governor Aminu Tambuwal of Sokoto State visited one of Wike’s ally and a G5 member, Governor Samuel Ortom of Benue State in a move to resolve the crisis.
