Festus Keyamo (SAN), spokesman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential campaign council, has dismissed reports that the G5 Governors may endorse the Labour Party presidential flag-bearer for the 2023 election, Peter Obi.

Governors who are members of the G5 are Nyesom Wike (Rivers), Samuel Ortom (Benue), Ifeanyi Ugwanyi (Enugu), Okezie Ikpeazu (Abia) and Seyi Makinde (Oyo). The five men are chieftains of Nigeria’s main opposition party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).


They have been at loggerheads with their party’s presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar after Wike failed to win the party’s presidential ticket.

They are also unhappy that Atiku rejected Wike as a running mate and are demanding the resignation of Iyorchia Ayu as the party’s National Chairman, allegedly to reduce the dominance of the PDP by the North.

It was gathered barring any last-minute change in political permutations, the aggrieved PDP governors who are presently in London, United Kingdom (UK) for strategic meetings, may have concluded plans to endorse Obi, a former governor of Anambra State.


Reacting to the report of the G5’s imminent endorsement of Obi, Keyamo said the Labour Party has no electoral value.

“The Labour Party that you claimed many of these G-5 governors are looking at is untested and cannot be trusted. It has no electoral value for now because it has not been tested.

“It is a known fact that anybody who has been tested has already gone through the ballot box and the LP, as presently constituted, has not done that.

“As proper politicians, there is no other place to take a chance outside the APC,” Keyamo told Punch.

See the 12 good conditions the G-5 Governors gave Tinubu before they can even think of supporting him.

1. Tell Nigerians who killed Funso William.
2. Tell Nigerians why you bedwet and pee on your clothes in public? What if it happens in your meeting with international bodies?
3. Tell Nigerians the name of your primary school. Tell Nigerians at least 5 of your primary or secondary classmates/schoolmates.
4. Tell Nigerians your childhood, your father, mother siblings and how you couldn't pay school fees but inherited estates.
5. Tell Nigerians your teachers at least 3.
6. You've been accused of drug peddling, why are you quiet? Tell Nigerians with believable evidence what you did in Chicago that make US charge you with drug crimes.
7. How do you intend to fight corruption after carrying money in bullion vans? Tell Nigerians how a big thief like you intends to catch small thief?
8. Buhari spent a fortune on foreign medical trip, we won't support you if you can't treat yourself in Nigeria.
9. Tell Nigerians how much you make from Lagos purse every day.
10. Tell Nigerians your real age.
11. Tell Nigerians your financial state before you become the governor of Lagos state.
12. What is Bulaa baluu, corn-agbado situation? And why do dodge TV interviews?
You have two days to respond using Arise or Channel TV or forget about G-5 support.

Signed
Gov. Wike

Lol....shebi una talk sey him no get structure?
Obi is cumin whether with the help of the G-5 governors or not.

Why not wait till they speak, before making a comment. Also, why would a man who said he could make himself king need the assistance of five chiefs. What happened to the billions of voters in the north who love Shettima like early morning hot bread? What happened to the Buhari bloc votes? Kikiki...

I tire oh. Shey G5 still dey alive. APC don conclude the meeting in their favour already. Shuo. Nonsense and Babablu.

PDP governors that APC and Festus Keyamo have been saying destroyed Nigeria for 16 years are the same people they are desperately looking forward to latch on for political gain. Wonders shall never end.

Tinubu and Atiku are going on permanent retirement next year after the election.

Peter Obi is the next president

And what's the electoral value of this Senior Advocate of Nonsense again in Delta state?

So you mean wike,Ortom,ipeazu and the Enugu gov will go to their states and start campaigning for a Muslim Muslim ticket?

Even the G-5 Governors are in a quagmire on who to support.

If they are wise they should go with Obi and boost his chances of winning.

Going with Jagabandit or Atiku is suicidal.
