Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike has reportedly said that there would be no peace deal with Atiku Abubakar until the National Chairman of the People’s Democratic Party, Iyorchia Ayu, resigned his position.
According to Punch, Wike made this known when Atiku met him on Thursday at his private residence in Asokoro, Abuja.
It reported that one of the allies of Wike disclosed that during Thursday’s meeting, the governor maintained that Ayu must go for peace to reign.
“I just want to set the record straight that no matter what you have heard, the meeting ended because Wike stood firm that there was no basis for any resolution until Ayu stepped down,” the source said.
“Every other thing can be discussed, whether it is 2027 or not after the needful has been done. This will put the party in a position where the national chairman can go to every state to campaign for the party. There are some states where Ayu may not be welcomed,” he added.
