Governor Samuel Ortom of Benue State has dubbed a road leading to the home of People’s Democratic Party National Chairman Nyesom Wike as the Governor Nyesom Wike Road.

Gabriel Suswam, a former governor of Benue, opened the road that leads to Ayu’s house behind the Commissioner’s Quarters in Makurdi.

The PDP’s G5 governors descended on Makurdi, the Benue State capital, on Monday for the completion of several projects completed by Ortom.

Governors Seyi Makinde (Oyo), Nyesom Wike (Rivers), Okezie Ikpeazu (Abia), and Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi (Abia) joined Ortom at the ceremony (Enugu).

Remember that the five governors have consistently demanded that Iyorchia Ayu stand down as PDP national chairman, claiming that northerners should not be the PDP national chairman and presidential candidate.

Before the inauguration, the G5 addressed PDP supporters at a rally organized to mobilize support for all PDP candidates in Benue, including Titus Uba, Speaker of the Benue State House of Assembly and PDP governorship candidate in the state.

Last night, Wike stated that the PDP G5 are bonded to preserve Nigeria and that no one can break their ranks in their continuous demand that Ayu resign as the party’s national chairman.

“People have tried to see how they can break us, you cannot. We are bonded to save Nigeria.

“That is why when you see all of us, we are impenetrable. Nobody can divide us. They have tried everything in this world to divide us, but no way.

“The way we operate; I will talk, we have people who don’t talk. You may be underrating them. By the time they will shock you, you will think it is Wike, it is not Wike you are seeing,” he said.

However, Ayu, a Benue native, has persisted on remaining in office till the conclusion of his four-year term, even as the G5 demands his resignation in order to support Adamawa-born Atiku Abubakar’s presidential bid in 2023.
