Rivers Campaign Council Declares G-5 Governors PDP’s Soul, Conscience  

The Consolidation of the New Rivers Vision Campaign Council has described the five governors of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) popularly known as “G-5” as the soul and conscience of the party.

The governors include Governor Nyesom Ezenwo Wike, Governor Samuel Ortom of Benue State, Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of Enugu State, Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State and Governor Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia State.

They have been in the forefront of the campaign for the resignation of Senator Iyorchia Ayu as the PDP national chairman.

Addressing journalists in Port Harcourt yesterday, director-general of Campaign Council, Chief Felix Obuah, said the five governors have earned the respect of Nigerians by remaining in the PDP.

Obuah said, “We applaud the G-5 for remaining the soul and conscience of the PDP. Their decision to pursue peaceful options despite obstacles placed on the way has further endeared them to the Nigerian people.”
