Just after the picture of a meeting between former President Olusegun Obasanjo, presidential candidate of the Labour Party and former governor of Anambra State, Mr. Peter Obi, and the Rivers State governor, Nyesom Wike, was made public, Wike has also held the long-awaited meeting with former Vice President and presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, in London.
Details of the meeting between the two PDP leaders were not disclosed but it obviously centered around reconciliation and the need to move the party forward ahead of 2023 polls.
Those present at the meeting aside Atiku and Wike were Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State, Governor Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia State, and his Benue State counterpart, Samuel Ortom.
Ikpeazu, Makinde and Ortom had accompanied Wike to the meeting with Obasanjo and Obi.
All the meetings are believed to be part of the horse-trading by Obi and Atiku towards clinching the Nigerian presidency in 2023 on the platform of their various political parties.
