We are on top of the situation and PDP will reunite and forge ahead to win the next elections.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI assure you that PDP will definitely resolve the family issue that it currently has. The fact that some APC governors went to see their colleagues, trying to capitalise on what they think is an issue is a gross miscalculation. At the end of the day, their visit is going nowhere.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe APC governors know that it is this kind of a crack they need to latch on. Fortunately, we are not going to give him (Wike) to them because the election ahead is too important.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe destiny of millions of Nigerians are too important and even bigger than any party or individual. I appreciate that. All our stakeholders appreciate that and Governor Wike himself appreciates that\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>On the current strike by university unions in Nigeria, the ex-governor of Kwara state laid the blame on Federal Government\u2019s insensitivity.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere is no way I will be part of the government as the Senate President and ASUU and other unions in the universities will go on strike for months.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is a lack of compassion and dedication. It is a matter that government should lock itself up in a room and not come out until the matter is resolved. And I have not seen that dedication. I don\u2019t know whether you have seen it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat is the difference between the PDP government and what we have now.
