Governors elected on the platform of The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governors under the aegis of PDP Governors’ Forum yesterday disagreed with the call by the party’s Board of Trustees (BoT)for a consensus candidate, it was learnt late Tuesday night.

The governors also resolved that the national convention of the party where the presidential candidate would emerged would hold in Port Harcourt, the Rivers state capital.

Recall that the governors had in their communique on Monday resolved to have an all-inclusive meeting with all the PDP Presidential aspirants, with the National Chairman, two national officers of the party, as well as leaders of the party in both chambers of the National Assembly in attendance.

A source at the meeting yesterday told journalists that the governors resolved that all the aspirants should head for primaries, in the spirit of fairness and equity.

“The governors disagreed with the issue of consensus. They said that all the aspirants should go for the primaries to avoid unforeseen development. They want a contest among the aspirant so that the best can emerge,” he said.

On the issue of convention, the source said that Enugu, Akwa Ibom and Rivers states were suggested, but the first two were dismissed due to what he called accommodation logistics.

He added, “The issue of where to hold the convention came up. Enugu, Akwa Ibom and Rivers states were suggested, but Rivers state was selected. Enugu and Akwa Ibom were discarded because there are no enough hotels to accommodate the people that will come for the convention. Rivers States has enough accommodation, that was why it was selected.”

Little by little Nyesome Wike have seized PDP and put it under his firm grip as he's the one who calls the shot in the party. He is gunning for VP slot for whoever emerges (Tambuwal) for the presidential candidate..... going by his antecedents.

He became governor by forming a grassroot group and fought Ameachi while he pretended to fight for Jonathan re-election. He used state fund to bribe his way and win the case in supreme court for PDP and thereafter bought delegates with money who voted Uche Secondus as chairman. His visit to the Sultan of Sokoto last year,the Sultans visit to Rivers State are all his efforts to align himself with the Caliphate politically for his selfish interest.

PDP at the end may not salvage this country from APC as we all may think because other presidential aspirants who will lose in the primary will work against the party....an implosion is imminent.

Self interest will not let them agreed

No anointed candidate!!!

Equality before the law is all that matters....

I wish them a free and fair primaries to elect a reliable candidate that would lead Nigeria out of obscurity to the Promise Land.

When I tell people that high tension now owns PDP, Dem go dey argue

It's clear now that Tambuwal is the anointed and a SS man will be VP candidate and that man most likely will be Wike

Tambuwal and his supporters on seeing this news..

I hope they will invite all fresh olosho in ph. I cant com without having a sure bress to suck.

Kul

A doomed party with doomed fellows have got nothing to offer to us after their calamitous 16years of ruling in which they failed woefully and wobble in their wobbliness.... God bless PMB.

SARAKI 2019

I think Atiku would win. He defected early and has no plan B. Tambuwal and Saraki are just pretenders. If not they wouldn't have gone ahead to also secretly pick gubernatorial and senatorial forms too through surrogates. Doesn't show confidence.

PDP jaga jaga.

Everything scatter scatter

So PH has more accomodation logistics than Enugu? I dont think so

Don't u think the duo's plan B will make it easier for them to 'let go' if they lose out in the primary poll?
