Senator Dino Melaye who is the Presidential Campaign Council spokesman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has called on Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State-led G5 governors to stop dancing naked ahead of the 2023 general election.
Africa Today News, New York reports that the Wike-led group is against the PDP’s presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, over the zoning pattern in the party.
The group, which has pulled out of the campaigns for Atiku, insisting that the North can’t produce the party’s Presidential flagbearer and the National Chairman for the 2023 Presidential election.
The G-5 group comprising governors from Enugu, Benue, Oyo, Rivers and Abia States.
They had also demanded the resignation of Iyorchia Ayu as PDP National Chairman.
Wike, who became aggrieved after losing to Atiku, said the G-5 wants the position of the party’s National Chairman zoned to the Southern part of Nigeria.
However, in a tweet via his Twitter handle on Friday night, Melaye also called on Wike and the other four governors to return back to the party and build a formidable strength against the All Progressives Congress (APC), adding that they should not give colouration of religious bigotry.
He tweeted: ‘Governor Wike and the other G4 Governors must quickly come back home and build a formidable strength against the party regarded as public enemy (APC).
‘The five governors are all Christians and should not give colouration of religious bigotry. It is time to stop dancing naked. SDM.’
Melaye had a few years ago noted that the party’s presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, is definitely at home with all the genders, the tribes and faiths in Nigerian.
He had also noted that Abubakar Atiku actually has the balm with which to heal Nigerians of all their pains if elected president.
