PDP leadership: Wike, Atiku reconcile ahead of 2023 poll

The crisis rocking the People Democratic Party, PDP may soon be over as Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, has received ex-Vice President and former Presidential aspirant, Atiku Abubakar, on Tuesday.
Both men had been at loggerheads over control of the party. It was rumoured that Wike was scheming to maintain control of the party’s structure in order to the pave way for his friend, Aminu Tambuwal, to win the party ticket in 2023.
Atiku was said to have been resisting such moves. The development even led to a rift between Wike and the national chairman of the party, Uche Secondus.

However, with Tuesday’s meeting in Port-Harcourt, all those differences seem to have been set aside.
According to a source privy to the meeting, Wike said, “If Atiku can manage and unite his Hausa, Igbo and Yoruba wives, he will surely unite Nigeria.”
