Wike, Ortom: We’ re taking action to address aggrieved PDP members – Atiku
Atiku Abubakar, the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has said actions are being taken to reconcile aggrieved party members.
Atiku said this in a post on his Twitter page on Wednesday.
It could be recalled that the post-presidential primary crisis has engulfed the PDP.
On Wednesday, Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom, decried what he described as Atiku’s ‘insult’ to Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike.
He said Atiku should explain why he did not pick the former presidential aspirant as his running mate.
Also, Former Ekiti State Governor Ayo Fayose insisted that power should shift to the South.
Reacting, Atiku said, ”The @OfficialPDPNig will remain united. Focus on our actions. We are taking action to address the feelings of all party members. The unity in our community is my priority. Our resolve to unify Nigeria starts in our party and moves to the community, then on to society.
”Every Governor, Legislator, and other elected officials produced by our party, and party members and loyalists, are much loved and respected by me.
”When they speak, I listen. I do not only listen. Appropriate actions have been taken, are being taken, and will continue to be advanced. ”
