Tinubu meets Govs Wike, Ortom, Makinde, others in Europe

In a move believed that would upset calculations in the 2023 general elections, the Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, has reportedly met with Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State and other PDP juggernauts in far-away Paris, France.

Reports claimed that at the meeting with Asiwaju Tinubu were Governor Samuel Ortom of Benue State and his Oyo State counterpart, Governor Seyi Makinde.

Sources close to Governor Wike said the meeting held in another country other than France.

Recallthat Asiwaju Tinubu had left Nigeria, on Monday, for Europe on a week’s break.

According to the source, “Yes, we left Nigeria to meet with Tinubu on Monday. We initially thought it would hold in France because that was where Tinubu went the last time he left the country.

“We, however, got signal close to our time of departure that we should proceed somewhere else.

“Governors Ortom and Makinde who have been supporters of Wike from the beginning were also on the trip.”

The source told us that the meeting was connected with the APC candidate getting Wike’s support for Tinubu in next year’s election.

The source continued, “Yes, the discussion was centred on the 2023 election. The Tinubu camp know how important votes from Rivers State are and are looking for how to get Wike to work for them,” he also added.

While it may the hard for Governor Wike to leave the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) because of some of his followers who are already contesting for elections in the party, the Tinubu camp is expecting him to use his influence in the state to work for them and deliver Rivers State for the APC.

Since Wike lost the People’s Democratic Party presidential primaries to former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, he has rebuffed moves by Party leaders to placate him.

He has also many times threatened many members of the PDP in the state who are loyal to Atiku, closing down some businesses owned by them.

Efforts to also reconcile with him have become hard, as the meetings between his camp and Atiku’s team ended in deadlock.
