As part of his outreach to political stakeholders across the country, the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Mr. Peter Obi, visited the Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, in Port Harcourt on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

The closed-door meeting lasted for a few hours at the governor\u2019s private residence in Port Harcourt.<\/p><\/div>\n

\nThough the outcome of the meeting was not known, Obi tweeted about the meeting and posted pictures online where the two politicians were seen shaking hands in front of Governor Wike\u2019s residence.<\/p>\n

\u201cEarlier today, I visited Port-Harcourt, to confer with H.E. @GovWike on vital issues of national interest,\u201d Obi tweeted, signing off with his signature \u2013PO.<\/p><\/div>\n

\nWike was spotted in white, while his guest, Obi wore a blue material.<\/p>\n

Obi\u2019s visit is coming amidst speculations that Wike may dump the Peoples Democratic Party, due to the fallout over the presidential primary of the party and the failure of the party\u2019s presidential standard-bearer, Atiku Abubakar, to pick him as his running mate for the 2023 general election.<\/p><\/div>\n

\nAtiku had also set up a reconciliation committee to reach out to Wike to pacify him and to solicit his support for the party to wrestle power from the All Progressives Congress at the centre.<\/p>\n

Recall that Wike while speaking at the PDP convention said he would support whoever emerges candidate and he will remain in the Party.<\/p>\n

Peter Obi\u2019s visit comes four days after the Ebonyi State Governor, Dave Umahi also met with Governor Wike at about 9:00 pm behind closed doors.<\/p>\n

The meeting also comes days after Obi returned from Egypt where he went to\u00a0 \u201cunderstudy by what miracle the third biggest economy in Africa after South Africa and Nigeria moved their power generation from 20,000 megawatts to over 40,000 megawatts in four years,\u201d a statement by his aide stated.<\/p>\n
