According to him, the meeting in a bid to restore unity within the opposition party.
Former Senate President and Chairman of the party’s Special Reconciliation Committee, Dr. Bukola Saraki has met with Oyo State Governor, Seyi Makinde.
He announced the meeting in a post on his X page on Monday.
According to him, the meeting was scheduled to restore unity within the opposition party.
Saraki, who was accompanied by former Gombe State Governor Ibrahim Dankwambo, disclosed the meeting in a post via his official social media handle.
“Thank you, Your Excellency, Governor @Seyiamakinde, for making time to meet with us today—even though it coincided with your wife’s birthday. Warm wishes to Her Excellency Mrs. Tamunominini Makinde,” Saraki posted.
“Following today’s meeting, we remain cautiously optimistic as we forge ahead to secure a common position among the leadership of our great party.”
The fresh reconciliation effort comes just days after Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, publicly announced his withdrawal from all previous peace pacts within the PDP.
Wike, a former Rivers State governor and member of the G5 group, blamed the breakdown on dishonesty and betrayal among party leaders, singling out Governor Makinde as “the architect of our problems.”
According to Wike, the internal cracks began to deepen after the 2023 general elections, with stakeholders allegedly reneging on mutual agreements.
