2023: PDP Looks To Amaechi To Upstage Wike by Validated(op): 7:08am On Sep 05, 2022
There are strong indications that the PDP are looking to hamner a deal with former Rivers State governor, Rotimi Amaechi to return to the PDP. Analyst believe such a deal will deflate Wike's bloated ego. It woud be recalled that since losing the APC presidential ticket, Rotimi Amaechi has remained largely unconcerned about the APC. Rumours have it that Amaechi alongside many other APC presidential aspirants from the South are totally against the APC's muslim-muslim ticket.
The recent romance between Tinubu and Wike has opened a rivalry wound between Amaechi and Wike. Political analysts believe that if Wike defects to the APC, as some have been speculating, Amaechi will cash in on the leadership vacuum that will be created to swing into poitical relevant in Rivers and by extension the South South.
Should Amaechi declare support for Atiku, PDP in Rivers will combine with those of Delta and Akwa-Ibom to form a three prong tripod for PDP in the South South.
However, informed sources believe Atiku favours a reconcilation with Wike than chose the Amaechi option, however, all cards are on the table for now.
The only thing still distracting Amaechi is his hope that he might become a beneficiary of a possible disqualification of Tinubu, with the myraid of cases bothering on inconsistencies on the former's profile. Trully , in politics there are no permant friends, but permanent interest. Time shall tell what becomes of Rivers State PDP.

The question is why is atiku always having problems whenever he chooses a running mate?? In 2007 he had problem with tinubu when he choose senator Ben obi, in 2019 he had problem with south East leaders when he announced Mr Peter Obi running mate, in 2023 elections he is having problems with wike and his group. And he loses each time

Even Heaven has ordained Obi.

Who are the detractors? They shall melt like wax before the fire and be blown away as the wind blows away the chaff.
