The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Presidential Campaign Council (PCC), has refuted reports that the party had suspended its rallies to pacify the Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike.
It was reported that the party suspended its rallies over the disagreement between the Presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar and Rivers Governor Nyesom Wike.
The Director of Strategic Communications, Dele Momodu, in his reaction, said the stories were false.
The spokesperson confirmed that the party’s campaign, which commenced this week in Akwa Ibom’s capital Uyo, was on course.
He said; “Absolute falsehood…unlike the APC which is yet to put its act together, our Atiku/Okowa Presidential Campaign Council has taken off at supersonic speed. See you soon in Kaduna by God’s grace.’’
It was claimed the rallies were suspended at the instance of Atiku who was said to have dispatched three PDP stalwarts to speak with Wike.
The mediators are reportedly ex-Senate President, David Mark, former Rivers Governor, Peter Odili and former Delta Governor, James Ibori.
