365NEWS gathered that Ayodele Fayose, a former governor of Ekiti State, has urged the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, to talk with Peter Obi, a presidential candidate for the Labour Party, LP, before the 2023 elections.
Fayose urged the PDP leaders to work with Nyesom Wike’s faction of the party to resolve the crisis. Wike is the governor of the Rivers.
The former governor made the appeal while highlighting the possibility that PDP might lose the Southeast in the upcoming presidential election.
He made the point that all interests will be represented in the South-South.
Stressing that PDP doesn’t have much work in the North-Central, Fayose said: “PDP and APC did not pick any candidate, either presidential or vice-presidential, from the north-central. The northeast is where the vice-presidential candidate of APC comes from.”
The PDP chieftain also described the New Nigeria Peoples Party, NNPP, presidential candidate Rabiu Kwankwaso as a semi-cancer.
“We will give Adamawa State to our party. Don’t forget there is still another Kwankwaso who is a semi-cancer that can equally upstage figures in the north.
“Reconciling or negotiating with Obi will be a good thing and finding a way to make peace with these Wike people will be a good thing too,” Fayose told Channels Television.
