He said:
“I am calling on every single member of the PDP family to put their differences aside. We are not out to fight against ourselves; our goal is to unite the party, go out as we used to do, win elections as we used to do.
“I call on every member of this party to forget their differences. If there are differences, we must settle our differences in-house. No party member should attack another party member.
“If there are any issues, we have different organs of the party to resolve party differences.”
PDP in crisis as Wike replies Obaseki, says Edo governor a serial betrayer
Recall that Wike had attacked Obaseki, describing him as a serial betrayer and ungrateful person.
Wike rubbished Obaseki’s earlier diatribe against him, adding that the former national chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Adams Oshiomhole, has been vindicated.
Legit.ng gathered that Wike spoke during the inauguration of an expanded community Secondary School project in Omuanwa in Ikwere local government area of the state on Monday, March 14.
Wike apologised to Oshiomhole for ignoring his warnings about Obaseki, saying everything former governor of Edo state said about the character of his successor had come to pass.
