Wike Visit To Saraki, Commendable, In Order - Earl Osaro, Founding Governors Forum DG

A Chieftain of Peoples Democratic Pioneer and Pioneer Director-General of the Governors Forum, Earl Osaro Onaiwu, has commended the immediate past Governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Wike, for meeting with a former president of the Senate, Dr. Abubakar Bukola Saraki.

In a statement that was released on Tuesday, Onaiwu, who christened the meeting between the two leaders to be in order, appealed to members of the PDP to separate personal relationship from politics and unite for greater good of the party and the country.

"Dr. Bukola Saraki, the former president of the Senate, is easygoing and possesses an impeccable record of astute leadership which has earned him love and admiration from Nigerians within and outside the PDP.

The handshake that was exhibited between himself and the Honorable Minister of FCT, Nyesom Wike, is an attestation that friendship and relationship should not be sacrificed on the altar of individual political interests. Beside, Nigeria is bigger than any individual, in brotherhood and love we must abide towards each other.

I call on leaders and members of our great Party to take advantage of this platform to reconcile every grey areas so as to work together for the growth of the PDP and the ultimate benefit of Nigeria.

Less than 24 hours after, Saraki visited Wike’s residence. This is how bridges are built and people play politics without bitterness.

Some people will spend their entire generation hating on others and cursing. Calling everyone “coward” and “betrayal” but when elections come they begin to chant “ support your brother” “it is supposed to be zoned to us if there is equity” as if you owe them anything.
