Ayu did not really add any value to the party, but Atiku sacrificed the G5 Governors for him.<\/p>\n<p>As it stands today, Wike still has an impact on the PDP. Forget what people are saying; the minority leaderships in the House of Representatives and Senate are with Wike. Some people will tell you that it is not true. But what they cannot tell you is whether those people nominated by the party. No; they are loyal to Wike.<\/p>\n<p>He (Wike) supported Godswill Akpabio and Tajudeen Abbas and both of them are now in charge of the National Assembly, and the people that PDP supported did not win. What did that tell you? If Wike becomes a minister under Tinubu; if care is not taken, he can destroy the PDP.<\/p>\n<p>His people in the PDP are projecting Professor Jerry Gana to be the next national chairman of the party. Saraki is the candidate of the Atiku\u2019s camp and they have not even settled themselves yet. They are still talking and holding meetings.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><em>&#8220;Let me even tell you how the situation favours those rooting for Jerry Gana,&#8221;<\/em> the confidential source continued. The position of national chairman is for the North Central, and the executive level of the zone will decide who will take the position after Ayu, assuming they follow the rules.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>In the North Central, there is zone A and B. Zone A is Benue, Nasarawa and Plateau states. Zone B is FCT, Niger, Kogi and Kwara.<\/p>\n<p>Kogi has produced the national chairman before in Ahmadu Ali, Kwara produced Kawu Baraje, and Benue produced Iyorchia Ayu, Barnabas Gemade and Audu Ogbe. In Plateau, there was Solomon Lar. Ayu is from zone A. Some people are insisting that zone B should produce the next chairman to complete the tenure. Also, Kamaldeen Ajibade, the national legal adviser, is from Kwara; a minus for Saraki.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ll inform Nigerians at the right time.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>When asked about the development in the party and what the leadership is doing to get a replacement for Ayu, the national publicity secretary of the party, Debo Ologunagba, said the party is focused on other issues now and will inform Nigerians at the appropriate time.<\/p>\n<p><strong>He said:<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Our party is focused on what we need to be focused on right now. We are taking one thing at a time. When we get particular information, we will let Nigerians know through the media and our stakeholders too.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Ologunagba also disclosed that reports that the National Working Committee (NWC) of the party will meet this week were incorrect as nothing of such has been slated.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A crisis is brewing in the opposition Peoples
