A member of the Peoples Democratic Party’s (PDP) Board of Trustees named Adamu Maina Waziri has spoken out against the opposition party’s decision to approach Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike about the selection of Ifeanyi Okowa, the governor of Delta State, as Atiku Abubakar’s running mate in the 2023 presidential election.
Former Minister of Police Affairs Adamu Maina Waziri criticized the action as being ill-informed and insisted that the party’s interests outweigh those of its members as a whole.
He said; “Wike is desperate and he needs time to be comforted over what happened. I agree with the reconciliation but where we part ways is the issue of sending that mighty delegation to kneel for him.

“Whatever decisions the party made, all obedient members should abide, we must keep aside whatever happened during primary elections and move on, the party is bigger than the interest of all of us.
“Wike said he would not be running mate to anybody therefore we must find someone who will work smoothly with our presidential candidate.”
Waziri also debunked the rumor that Atiku sent him to speak with Wike in Turkey. He said;
“Atiku didn’t not send me anywhere but of course I was in Istanbul Turkey for my leave last Friday and we coincidentally met in a hotel, that’s just it.”
