To finalise the deal on the 2023 presidency, five aggrieved governors of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) are set to meet with the Presidential Candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Authentic News Giant learnt
A reliable source close to the former Lagos State governor, said barring any last-minute change, the meeting will be held in one of the European countries this week.
The source, who refused to give the exact date of the meeting, however, said it is being conveyed to firm up their deal on the 2023 presidency with the governors.
He said the G-5 governors, comprising Nyesom Wike (Rivers), Seyi Makinde (Oyo), Samuel Ortom (Benue), Okezie Ikpeazu (Abia) and Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi (Enugu) would after the meeting make their preferred presidential candidate known to the public.
The governors, it was gathered are already in the United Kingdom ahead of the meeting.
“The support by G5 for Tinubu is going to be a game changer, akin to the declaration of the G6 for the APC in 2014.
“We are meeting with the group this week in Europe to firm up the arrangement. They are first-class nationalists who believe in the Nigeria project and we shall work together for the good of the nation,” he said.
Nigerians Reactions:
Like I said on the other thread, the Nigeria media will milk everything out of this Wike G5 endorsement.
—Wike set to meet Tinubu and endorse him
—G5 split apart, divided on who to endorse between Peter Obi and Tinubu
—G5 in talks with Peter Obi on possible alliance
—Tinubu jet out to London to meet G5 governor
—Obasanjo finally dwell on G5 governors to endorse Peter Obi
—Bola Tinubu fail to meet G5 terms, alliance set to endorse Peter Obi
—At last, G5 governors finally throw their weight behind Tinubu
—With promise to nominate 20% of Tinubu cabinet, G5 led by Wike endorse Tinubu
—Wike set to campaign with Tinubu in Lagos rally.

The game is going as set.
Shehu Sani advised them to endorse whoever they want to edorse
(1)This means any governor,from North or south can go outside party line open or hiden to work for any candidate…no more excuse to give to Northerners or Southerners again.
(2)G5 have never have their supporters increased. It is just illusion. Because their so called so supporters are APC and LP supporters that are pushing them against their party. Once they go for a single candisate,the other party will pullout from supporting them any more and the naration will change.
(3)If G5 go for different candidates,their aim is again meaningless and if would not achieve anything,because the responders will go for PDP unitedly.
(4)There would be major rivals in South,while gradually there is only one candidate from the South.
(5)The final shock greater than that of Tambuwal is to come on february.
