Reacting to Atiku’s message to Wike, a news correspondent, Ima Elijah, noted that if Atiku’s prayers are to be answered, he will not be president.
If Lines fall in pleasant places for Wike, you will not be president…
But okay… amen 🙏🏾 https://t.co/fDPsBG6hQt
— Ima in the city (@ima_Elijah) December 13, 2022Atiku and Wike have endured a troubled relationship since the governor lost his bid to emerge as PDP’s presidential candidate.
Wike, who has refused to support Atiku’s presidential ambition, demanded the resignation of the party’s National Chairman, Iyorchia Ayu. His rationale for this was that both the party’s presidential flagbearer and the national chairman cannot be from the same region of the country; the North.
The governor and his group, G-5 said the North can’t produce the party’s presidential candidate and national chairman.
About the G5 governors: Apart from Mr Wike, other governors who are members of the G5 are Samuel Ortom (Benue), Ifeanyi Ugwanyi (Enugu), Okezie Ikpeazu (Abia) and Seyi Makinde (Oyo).
