Breaking: 3 strong APC governors visit Wike in Rivers as defection rumours thicken (PICTURES)

As 2023 general election permutations become intense, three governors of the All Progressives Congress (APC) on Friday arrived at the Rivers state governor, Nyesom Wike’s residence for a closed door meeting.

The governors are Kayode Fayemi of Ekiti State, Babajide Sanwo-Olu of Lagos State and Rotimi Akeredolu of Ondo State.

The details of the closed-door meeting is not yet known but it may not be unconnected with the 2023 presidential election.

Wike, a chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), is expected to back his party’s candidate, Atiku Abubakar, but speculations have emerged that the Rivers State Governor is unhappy after being passed over for the vice presidential ticket.

APC presidential candidate, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, was said to have met with Wike in France last week but the Tinubu media office later denied such a meeting ever took place.
