2023: Orubebe, PDP Senate leadership visit Gov Wike, hold private meetings
Former Minister of Niger Delta Affairs, Elder Godsday Orubebe has held a private meeting with Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State in Port Harcourt.
This is coming three days after Orubebe dumped the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, citing injustice.
Orubebe in his letter to the PDP Chairman, said the main opposition party was not ready to reclaim power from the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the 2023 general elections.
Wike lost the presidential primary of the PDP to Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, who also ignored him in his choice of the vice presidential candidate and picked Delta State Governor, Ifeanyi Okowa instead.
He has been holding a series of meetings with top politicians in Port Harcourt recently.
On the same day, Wike received the Senate Minority Leader, Philip Aduda in Port Harcourt.
Aduda led the leadership of the PDP in the Senate to meet with Wike two days after he was nominated as Minority Leader to replace the former, Enyinaya Abaribe who defected from the PDP.
On the entourage were Deputy Minority Leader, Shuaibu Lau, Minority Whip, Chukwuka Utazi, and Deputy Minority Whip, Danjuma La’ah.
