Bayelsa state Governor, Duoye Diri has harped on the unity of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) as the 2023 elections inch closer.
Diri spoke to journalists after a visit to Ifeanyi Okowa, Governor of Delta alongside Godwin Obaseki, Edo Governor.
He said the party hopes to discuss with the G5 governors to convince them to support the PDP and work for the victory of its presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar.
“We want a united PDP and each time we meet, we focus and discuss the unity,” he said.
“We are not ruling out speaking to our brothers. Even today, we have also discussed the possibility of speaking to them to return to our party.
“We are calling on our brother-governors to be part of their own party and work in unity with every other person.
“We still want our brother governors back so we can visit them the way we visited our brother, Governor Okowa, who by God’s grace will be the vice-president of Nigeria.”
Also speaking on the meeting in Delta, Obaseki said it was to congratulate Okowa and to wish him well in the election.
