PDP Governors Say Hopes Of Nigerians Secure Under Party’s Leadership

            Governors of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) are gathered in Lagos for a meeting aimed at ensuring credible general elections.
During an interactive session with journalists on Monday night ahead of a scheduled meeting slated to hold on Tuesday, Governor of Niger State, Babangida Aliyu, said the postponement of the election has helped to reduce the tension in the country, especially following the victory recorded by the military in the northeast.

Chairman of the PDP Governors’ Forum and Governor of Akwa Ibom State, Mr Godswill Akpabio, explained that the forum’s meeting was not convened due to panic or pressure from any quarters.

The meeting, which is under the auspices of the PDP Governors Forum, is expected to have all the PDP governors in attendance to discuss key national issues.

The governors are also expected to dialogue with Civil society organisations in the course of the two-day meeting.

Governors in attendance include Godswill Akpabio of Akwa Ibom, Jonah Jang of Plateau, Liyel Imoke of Cross River, Seriake Dickson of Bayelsa, Ibrahim Shema of Katsina, Babangida Aliyu of Niger State and Olusegun Mimiko of Ondo state.

Others are, Governors Ayo Fayose of Ekiti, Ibrahim Dankwabo of Gombe, Mukhtar Yero of Kaduna and Bala Ngilari of Adamawa State."
