Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar, has described the party’s internal crisis as a social media drama.
He said he is open to meeting with Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike.
Atiku disclosed this on Thursday while fielding questions from journalists in Osogbo, Osun state capital.
When asked if the party is divided into factions, he said: “It is a social media drama. There is nothing like a Wike camp or Atiku camp. There is one PDP family.”
Atiku was also asked if there is a plan to meet with Wike for reconciliation, and he responded by saying: “Why not? I am open to that.”
The former vice-president added that the party will surmount its present challenges.
“Some people get angry when things don’t go their way and so on and so forth. We will overcome that. I have every belief that we are going to do that,” he said.
Mr Wike placed second in the party’s presidential primary election won by Atiku.
