State governors elected under the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) rose from a seven-hour meeting on Wednesday night, vowed to ensure unity of the party going into the 2023 election to oust the ruling All Progressive Congress (APC).

Meeting under the aegis of the PDP Governors Forum under the chairmanship of Sokoto State governor, Aminu Tambuwal, in Abuja, they also resolved to help Valentine Ozigbo, the candidate of the party in the November 6 Anambra State governorship election to emerge victorious at the poll.

Briefing correspondents on the outcome of the meeting, Tambuwal affirmed that it took a stand on some contentious issues but added that the decision would be made known at today’s meeting of the party’s National Executive Committee (NEC).

He said: “We have been meeting since 3 pm, meeting for about 7hours. Very fruitful deliberation.

“You must have seen that we received leaders of our party in various other states where we don’t have a governor. We had a robust discussion with them on how to move the party forward, bringing all the leaders together, not only working towards a best national convention, but even beyond that, so that we can continue to sustain the goodwill that PDP is enjoying in Nigeria, and send the right signal to Nigerians that we truly prepared and working together as a family to ensure that by the grace of God come 2023 we present a very united force that will rescue Nigeria from the misgovernance of APC.

“We also had in our meeting, our candidate in Anambra governorship election, where we received a briefing from him on how prepared our party is in Anambra and to confirm to you and Nigerians that all of us are united in supporting our party in Anambra.

“By the grace of God, we shall work assiduously towards winning the Anambra election.

“Also, we have discussed the forthcoming convention and you will hear from NEC tomorrow what the position is going to be.”
