The presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Atiku Abubakar, in continuation of his consultations towards choosing his running mate, will be meeting ex-PDP governors and ministers, this weekend.
Atiku had held a similar meeting with governors elected on the party’s platform on Wednesday.
The source explained that the PDP candidate was trying “to balance all the interests before arriving at an acceptable choice.”
It was gathered that at the meeting with governors, he was inundated with requests to choose from among them.
Some of the serving governors being suggested include the first runner-up in the presidential primary and Rivers State governor, Nyesom Wike; Delta State Governor, Ifeanyi Okowa, Akwa Ibom State governor, Udom Emmanuel, and Bayelsa State Governor Douye Diri.
