Don’t cross the lines, Dele Momodu tells Wike, Ortom, Makinde, Ikpeazu

The Director, Strategic Communications of the People’s Democratic Party Presidential Campaign Council, Mr Dele Momodu, has warned Governors Nyesom Wike (Rivers State), Samuel Ortom (Benue), Seyi Makinde (Oyo) and Okezie Ikpeazu (Abia), who have been at the forefront of a rebellion against the Iyorchia Ayu leadership of the party since Alhaji Atiku Abubakar emerged as the presidential candidate of the PDP, beating Wike, among others, to the second position.

Momodu in an interview aired on Channels Television recently said he was convinced that PDP presidential candidate will win the 2023 elections.

He said, “People get angry, there is nothing wrong in that, they have every reason to be angry, but they should not cross certain lines.

“I don’t see it as any blow and before I continue, you know that I am a great fan of Governor Wike and Governor Ortom happens to be one of our good governors but you know they work together and, when you look at the pattern, you will see that it is like a deliberate orchestration for maximum effect and impact.

“It is not true that our candidate did not want to involve them, our candidate reached out to them, several times, at home and abroad, but they remained very rigid in their position. In every reconciliation effort, it is expected that there would be a shift and they said they are not going to shift and anyone who knows Atiku Abubakar very well will know that he is a man who conducts himself very well. His comportment in fact is unprecedented. He does not exchange verbal attacks with anybody. He has been talking to them and he will continue to dialogue with them.”
