The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) peace committee, headed by Governor Ahmadu Fintiri, will meet today unless something unexpected comes up.
The committee was formed by PDP presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar to make amends with Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike and his supporters, according to an earlier report by Anaedoonline.ng.
A former minister of police affairs, Adamu Waziri, the former governor of Cross River State, Liyel Imoke, and the former PDP candidate for governor of Ondo State, Eyitayo Jegede, would accompany Fintiri, who represents Atiku, to the negotiations.
How PDP Presidential Candidate Will Emerge – Wike, Finitri Reveals
While the Wike camp will be led by former Minister of Information Jerry Gana, with former Cross River State Governor Donald Duke, former Governor of Ondo State Segun Mimiko, and former Minister of Justice and Attorney General of the federatio, Mohammed Adoke.n
Confirming the meeting to Daily Sun, one of Atiku’s spokesmen, Segun Sowunmi, said Fintiri will be leading the PDP candidate’s side in the peace talks.
He said, “I would have preferred that it is not really seen as an Atiku/Wike committee. I would have preferred that you saw it as a PDP committee trying to figure out how to close the gaps between the two sides. Having said that, our expectation is that when they meet, they will put the intention of a political party in opposition that wants to win government above all other things.
“There is nobody that is a PDP member that is not tired of these issues. We hope that if they go to that meeting, they will come out with positions that are acceptable to all sides, and the conversation around the country and how we are going to form government can start.”
