The National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Iyorchia Ayu, has said one of the aggrieved G5 governors, Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia State, has “agreed to work for the success of our party”.
POLITICS NIGERIA reports that Ikpeazu is a member of the PDP G5 — a group of five governors who have been absent from Atiku Abubakar’s presidential campaign rallies.
The governors — Ikpeazu, Nyesom Wike of Rivers, Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of Enugu, Samuel Ortom of Benue, and Seyi Makinde of Oyo — are demanding the resignation of Ayu as the party’s national chairman.
“What we have is some of our members who are aggrieved but we are appealing to Governor Ortom to come back and join us to rescue the country.
“Governor Ortom has nowhere to go.
“We have already resolved our issue with Governor of Abia State, Okezie Ikpeazu. I was with him two days ago and he has agreed to work for the success of our party,” Ayu said at Atiku’s rally in Benue State on Monday.
