Ahead of the 2023 general elections, the Vice Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) who is the Governor of Delta State, Dr. Ifeanyi Okowa has given assurances that the party will go into next year’s general elections as a united family.
Dr. Okowa gave this hint while speaking yesterday at Benue State Governor’s Lodge, Asokoro, Abuja, while speaking with reporters after a closed-door meeting with Governor Samuel Ortom.
He asserted that the reconciliation process initiated by leaders of the party to resolve all issues that emanated from the presidential primaries and his subsequent emergence as the vice presidential candidate was on, stressing that in the end, “all issues would be resolved.

The vice presidential candidate of the PDP noted that the Governor of Rivers State, Mr. Nyesom Wike was a strong party man who has worked very hard for the success of the PDP and would not want to work for another political party.
In his remarks, Governor Samuel Ortom corroborated Okowa’s position, saying leaders of the PDP are still discussing correcting wherever they may have gone wrong during the presidential and vice presidential tussles.
Governor Ortom, however, stated that as a critical and major stakeholder of the PDP, Wike needs to be placated to ensure that the reconciliation process was easy and smooth.
Africa Today News, New York reports that Governor Wike had on Friday claimed that the Presidential candidate of the Peoples’ Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubarkar had lied despicably against him.
Wike, who made the accusation while speaking on arrival at the Port Harcourt International Airport yesterday, also accused Atiku of using some stalwarts of the main opposition political party to spread falsehood about him.
The governor vowed to respond to both the PDP presidential candidate and the party chieftains who he described as Atiku’s ‘attack dogs’ one-by-one and line by line in due time.
