The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), says its committee mandated to select a suitable person as running mate for Atiku Abubakar, the party’s presidential candidate has not picked anyone yet.
It therefore dismissed reports that the panel has settled for Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike as the party’s vice-presidential candidate.
The clarification was made by the National Publicity Secretary of the party, Debo Ologunagba in Abuja on Wednesday.
He said, “We have a process as a party, because we are organic. We follow through the processes. We recognize the importance of participatory democracy, ensuring that every stakeholder and organ of the party is involved in our decision-making process,”
“This is the beginning of the process, consideration and advisory body needs to get to the level where, in consultation with the presidential candidate, they will deliberate on who is most suitable. That process is ongoing, so any report of a particular candidate at this point is probably premature.”
