The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Presidential Candidate, Atiku Abubakar, mentioned all PDP leaders, together with governors, particularly Gov. Nyesom Wike of Rivers, had been united in working for the victory of the PDP in 2023.
Atiku, on the other hand, appealed to party stakeholders and supporters to keep away from making statements able to compromising the party’s solidarity.
The former Vice President made the decision in a observation signed via his Media Adviser, Mr. Paul Ibe, in Abuja, amid a reconciliatory meeting in London Thursday between Atiku and the Wike camp of governors.
Abubakar steered stakeholders and his supporters to keep away from statements that compromised the continuing works against strengthening the party and uniting its leaders.
He accused the APC of making false claims of division in the PDP.
The observation learn, “it has become imperative to appeal to all party members, leaders and everyone related to, connected with or associated with the presidential candidate of the PDP, Atiku Abubakar to desist from making comments that potentially reduce the optics of PDP’s image as a united political party.
“This appeal becomes necessary in order to call the attention of party leaders and members to the diversionary antics of the ruling All Progressives Congress which, in manufacturing a false impression of division within the PDP, aims to hoodwink the Nigerian public to overlook the monumental failures of the ruling party.

“Today, Nigerians look up to the Peoples Democratic Party to lead the charge in ousting the ruling party. This expectation from the people is the reason why the APC is jittery of their impending fall in next year’s general election. It is also the very reason why the ruling party is manipulating the political process to create a sense of division in the PDP.
“Because they know that there is nothing to campaign with from their records of performance in office, the APC has elected to play the role of the devil’s advocate, regaling in celebration of their imaginary invincibility upon a fraudulent claim that the PDP is divided.
“It is for this reason that appeal to every true member of the PDP and anyone who truly wishes the success of the PDP presidential candidate to not fall for the antics of the APC in making statements that could give credence to the false claim of divisions in the PDP.
“All the leaders of the party, including especially the governor of Rivers State, His Excellency Nyesom Wike and all governors of the PDP are united in working for the victory of the PDP in next year’s general election across board.
“What is at stake in the next year’s election is the future of Nigeria and all leaders and members of the PDP are on the same page in the mission to rescue Nigeria from the stranglehold of the APC.”
