As the Rivers State governor, Nyesom Wike, continues to hold his party in suspense over his next political moves, indications have emerged that his group has listed conditions that needed to be met for them to agree to work for the presidential candidate of the party and former Vice-President, Atiku Abubakar.

From all indications, though, Wike and his group as well as loyalists and supporters would not be quitting the PDP as they believed their interests would be better served by remaining within the party. Beyond this, even the political balance in Wike’s home state of Rivers does not even support Wike decamping to the ruling APC as former Transportation Minister and a presidential hopeful of the party, Rotimi Amaechi, is currently the party leader in the state.

The victory of Adeleke has thrown up new permutations as the 2023 general election gathers momentum, especially as it relates to the presidential election with the erstwhile National Leader of the APC, Senator Bola Tinubu, the presidential candidate of the party. The victory of Adeleke has brought the number of PDP governors in the South-west to two.

In the southern part of the country with predominant Christian population, the opposition to the Muslim-Muslim ticket has been very strident which ironically coincides with the Peter Obi candidacy gaining traction; especially among younger Nigerians.
