PDP Crisis: Atiku Is Not Against You – Fayose Tells Wike

EKO HOT BLOG reports that a former governor of Ekiti, Ayo Fayose, has lent his voice to the crisis within the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), stating that the presidential flagbearer of the party, Atiku Abubakar, is not against Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State.

Wike has been at the centre of calls for the party’s chairman, Iyiorcha Ayu’s resignation. The feud between the duo has deepened despite the stepping down of Board of Trustees Chairman (Bot), Walid Jibrin. The National Executive Council of the PDP also passed a vote of confidence in Senator Ayu, further infuriating Wike.

But Fayose claimed that the supposed feud between the two was propelled by enemies wanting friction in the party, maintaining that Atiku and Wike are in no way against each other.

“For me, I want to believe his Excellency Atiku Abubakar is not against you but let me say this quickly: A lot of people surrounding the throne are enemies of the throne, and a lot of people surrounding the throne have an issue to grind with somebody or some issues with somebody and they take it to where they are not supposed to take it,” he said during the commissioning of the Obuama Community Secondary School in Rivers State on Friday.

Fayose described Wike as the “soul of the party: and as one instrumental for the party’s growth

“There is no living being within this party and outside this party that will not acknowledge your contribution to this party. You are the soul of this party even till now what you do how many people do it.”

“Let me say: your good works will never go unrewarded. I have found out some things. The people that have benefited from you are the people that have pulled people down; the people you brought up; the people you laboured over for day and night.”
