Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers has donated 25 buses to the campaign team of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Benue.

Benue governor, Samuel Ortom, who disclosed this on Tuesday in Makurdi during the inauguration of the party’s campaign council, said each of the 23 local governments would get a bus.

“Wike has also promised to be in Makurdi for the flag-off of the campaigns slated for Monday,” Mr Ortom said.

He thanked Mr Wike for always standing with Benue people, both in good and bad moments.

Mr Ortom said if the presidential candidate of the party addresses the challenges rocking the party, all PDP members will work together to rescue Nigeria, declaring that he had no issues with any candidate of the party.

He encouraged the party’s national leadership to listen to the voice of reason and address the burning issues raised by the five governors.

“All I and my colleagues want is for the committee of the whole house to address the issues holistically.

“If the issues that the five governors raised are not resolved, I cannot guarantee what will happen during the presidential election,” he said.

The acting chairman of the party in the state, Isaac Mffo, assured the gathering that PDP would win the 2023 polls, stressing that the party had no opposition in Benue.

Cletus Tyokyaa, director-general of the campaign council, who spoke on behalf of the members, said everything would be done to market the candidates toward victory.

“Now that we have been inaugurated, we will set the ball rolling in order to achieve great results,” Mr Tyokyaa assured.

The state woman leader, Ewaje Egwa, appreciated Mr Ortom for giving women many appointments and supporting their political ambitions.
