Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom, on Sunday received his counterpart from Sokoto State, Aminu Tambuwal, in Makurdi.

The meeting was part of the moves to resolve the internal crisis rocking the Peoples Democratic Party.

Tambuwal is the Director-General of the campaign council of the party’s presidential candidate, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, while Ortom is one of the five PDP governors known as Integrity Group currently insisting on the resignation of the party’s national chairman, Iyorchia Ayu.

Ortom said the Sunday meeting was at the instance of Tambuwal.

He said, “This meeting is at his instance. We have discussed quite many issues, including the division in the PDP; the G-5 which I am a member. He is here principally to see how we can team up and work together as a party.

“I have told him he is welcome, we are together, we are members of the PDP. But I have said that the leadership of this party has failed to take advantage of the challenges of the party and make it stronger.

“From when we held our convention, instead of the leadership deploying its internal dispute resolution mechanism to look at the grievances that arose as a result of the primaries, no matter how stupid they were, they have failed to do this.
Rather it is arrogance, nonchalant attitude; and nobody has cared to reach out to us even when we voiced out that things were not going on well.”

Ortom commended Tambuwal for the visit and expressed optimism that the crisis will soon be resolved if the group heed his advice.

Tambuwal, on his part, described the move to resolve the crisis in the party as a work in progress.

The governor said, “Even in our families, we have reasons to disagree and agree. At some other times when you have such disagreement and you come back together, you bond stronger and wax stronger.
So, it is a work in progress and we have met several times but we are working to bring everybody together to work for this party. That is the mission of my being here in Makurdi.

“He (Ortom) is a principled person on the issues we are handling and we have had a very strong conversation with him of course, I will engage with the rest of our colleagues and our leaders to see how best we can come back together as one family and work towards making sure that the PDP comes out stronger and win the election of 2023.

One thing wike wil understand is that money don't guarantee loyalty in politics those people are just following him because of his money especially fayose bode George and ortom and again they day wike will back any presidential candidate publicly apart from Atiku he will be suspended

very insightful, thank you for sharing.

PDP is gone

V

Ortom wasted so much time and benue money fighting Atiku and PDP, that's not what he was elected to do.

Tambuwal the serial betrayer..
Will he visit wike as well?. What's he going to tell wike when the two meet?

Wike should be eating with this people with a very long spoon.

Dead on arrival. Tambuwal that betrayed Wike? Coming to woo an ally of the same Wike? Una dey mad oooo!

Ortom is a devoted apostle of Wike so kindly expect Wike to use Ortom to get his own pound of flesh.

When will Tambuwal come to woo Wike?

Mentally retar'ded ediots err where.

Tambuwal is the principal cause of PDP crisis.

Hope they meant well after all

Ok

The way Nigerians are always Cheated by the Northerners is alarming. They are admitted in the Higher institution with less JAMB Score and after graduation they Secured the Best Federal Government Job in Nigeria. They want to keep Rulling the Country so that only their Children will be in delicate National position. Any Southerners supporting a Northern Candidate is a Fool. In all Fairness Igbos Should equally be tried.

The gathering of confused and failed people, their party has nothing to offer again

Ok

Muslim Muslim ticket must be rejected at all cost

I don't know how they are intending to do it but PDP won't clinched the Presidency.

BOLA AHMED TINUBU IS THE ONLY WAY TO GREATER NIGERIA, VOTE BAT, VOTE APC FROM BOTTOM TO TOP

G5 governors will vote like this:. Wike LP Makinde APC Ortom APC ( Ortom will prefer Yoruba as the president not another Fulani again) etc

Wike continue to pepper them

PDP should just bury it.. we can’t have another northerner this time after Buhari, that is not healthy for the nation at the moment. Power has to shift to the south, and southeast for that matter. There must be equity, fairness and justice for the country to experience any form of progress

Manny21:
These so called G5 Governor's are overrated. How many of them are even sure of winning 2nd term or senatorial elections in their States. Just a matter of months their over hyped powers and influence will be over. They are treated as if electorates in their States cannot decide on their own who to vote for. Wooing them does not automatically translate into election victories.

Because you are a kid

Gbola Thiefnubuu will be disgraced come February next year.

Only corrupt bastards and foolish idiots will vote for the demented Iragbiji drug criminal.

Tambuwal, the serial betrayer and backstabber.

Good one

I want Peter Obi to win the 2023 Presidential election
Peter Obi is capable
Peter Obi is the best candidate
Peter Obi is intelligent

But the problem here, Peter Obi will not win the 2023 Presidential election

Ortorm will soon align if he is really serious about his senatorial ambition and his political future all the big men in Benue politics are with Atiku with or without wike group Atiku will win massively
