Sanwo-Olu, Fayemi Others Visit Wike, As Outcome Of Meeting Remains Unknown

A team of South West APC governors led by Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu on Friday met with Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike.

This comes as both the host and guests could not say anything to pressmen about their closed-door meeting in Port Harcourt on Friday. قمار الخيل

Some South-West All Progressives Congress (APC) governors and leaders, all close associates of the party’s presidential candidate, Senator Bola Tinubu, met with Governor Wike in Port Harcourt, Rivers state capital, with speculations rife that it was an attempt to win Wike over to the ruling party.

The meeting took place at the private residence of the Rivers governor.

In the entourage were Governor Rotimi Akeredolu of Ondo State, and that of Ekiti state, Dr. Kayode Fayemi.

Also seen at the residence of the Rivers governor were Senator Olaka Nwogu and former Ekiti State governor, Ayodele Fayose, all of who declined to comment on the meeting.

With the host, Wike, also evasive on baring the mission of the visitors and outcome of the meeting, a Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, chieftain in Rivers told Vanguard, “There is nothing hidden under the sun. كازينو مباشر

“They have their reasons for not spilling what transpired now, but at the right time, someone would speak if he has to.”

Speculations are rife that the move is all about taking advantage of the fragile state of Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, at the moment to win Wike over to the ruling APC.

The feeling is that the Rivers governor was betrayed both in the party’s presidential primary and the selection of a running mate for PDP’s presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar.
