We haven’t changed, says PDP G-5 after meeting Tinubu

 

President Bola Tinubu on Thursday evening at the Presidential Villa met with members of the Peoples Democratic Party’s ‘G5 Governors’ also known as the Integrity Group.

The G5 group, made up of Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State and former governors Nyesom Wike of Rivers, Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia, Ifeanyi Ugwuwanyi of Enugu and Samuel Ortom of Benue have reportedly been friendly with President Tinubu, and contributed to his electoral victory on February 25, 2023.

Speaking to newsmen, on behalf of the group, after the meeting, Governor Makinde said they were at the State House to intimate President Tinubu with the happenings in the country,

The Oyo governor also disclosed that the complete number of the G5 members came to remind the President of what they represent, which include fairness, justice and equity.

He said, “Nation-building is a difficult task, you have to keep evaluating what you are doing, where you are going, so we have to keep seeing the President to let him know what is happening and for this evening, the G5 (the Integrity Group), we came to let the President know what we stood for; fairness, justice and equity and we haven’t changed”, he said.

Asked what next for the G5, Makinde said, “We’re going towards Mr President coming with us on the route for fairness, for justice and for equity in Nigeria”.

Governor Makinde and former Governor Wike have visited the Villa a couple of times since last week.
