According to the governor, anything can happen in a jiffy in politics and Nigerians should stop the speculation.
The governor also denied the insinuation that one of the G5 governors, Samuel Ortom of Benue state, has endorsed Peter Obi of the Labour Party, noting that the governor has only said what is expected of him to say as a leader.
The aggrieved governors of the PDP are demanding the resignation of the party's national chairman, Iyorchia Ayu, to pave way for a southern bloc in the leadership structure of the party.

Keyamo, who is also the minister of state for labour and employment, revealed that non-state actors are the real culprits against the realisation of the 2023 election.
According to the minister, Nigerians need to condemn the moral stance of these non-state actors who are threats to human lives and properties in the name of freedom to enable security.
