Akwa Ibom State Governor and Chairman, Peoples Democratic Party Presidential Campaign Council, Udom Emmanuel, on Thursday night, played host to Governor Samuel Ortom of Benue State, in a private visit at Government House Uyo.
Fielding questions from journalists after the meeting, Emmanuel said the leadership of the party was opened to peace with the G-5 governors, assuring all party faithful that the reconciliation of some of its aggrieved governors will see the party coast to victory in next year’s general elections.
While describing the PDP governors as brothers who show mutual respect to each other, Emmanuel noted that aside participating in the campaign train, all the PDP governors were intact, working towards the interest of the party.
“We all came in as a family, whether you like it or not these are brothers even in the parable of the lost sheep in the Bible only one sheep got missing and Jesus Christ left the rest and went after that one, how much more when you have brothers that are up to five.
“You turn around on a campaign platform you don’t see them suddenly you will feel you need them, these are people you started together, I think I still feel empty that we are all not together on a campaign platform but when it comes to governance we are all together and we have mutual respect for each other.”
