Nigerians have reacted to the meeting between the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, and Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike on Wednesday in Port-Harcourt, Rivers State.

Naija News earlier reported that Obi paid a visit to Wike at his private residence in Port Harcourt before meeting behind closed doors.

There have been speculations that the Rivers governor is plotting an exit from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) since former Vice President Atiku Abubakar decided to pick the Governor of Delta State, Ifeanyi Okowa as his running mate.

Naija News reports that the Rivers governor has remained silent on the affairs of the party that has seen two of his allies, a former minister of Niger Delta, Godsday Orubebe and an ex-commissioner in Edo State, Kassim Afegbua dump the PDP on Tuesday.

It is however unclear why the former Anambra governor visited the Rivers state governor but it may be connected to the 2023 Presidential elections.
