VIDEO: Wike, Ortom, G-5 govs celebrate over outcome of PDP NEC meeting

 Members of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Integrity
Group also known as the G-5 on Thursday celebrated over the outcome of the
party’s National Executive Committee, NEC, meeting.

The Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom
Wike, Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State, ex-governor Samuel Ortom, ex-Abia
State governor Okezie Ikpeazu, and Ifeanyi Uguwanyi of Enugu State were seen
celebrating the outcome of the party’s NEC meeting in Abuja.

PDP held its 98 NEC meeting with most of the party’s
stalwarts present at its National Headquarters in Abuja on Thursday.

The National Working Committee, NWC, of the PDP had passed a
vote of confidence on the party’s Acting National Chairman, Umar Iliya Damagum.

This was disclosed by the party’s National Publicity
Secretary, Debo Ologunagba via a statement.

Prior to Damagum’s emergence, Iyorchia Ayu was the acting
National Chairman of PDP until he was removed in the build-up to the 2023
presidential election.

Damagum is widely known to favour Wike’s camp, hence the
celebration among the G-5 governors.
