PDP crisis: Jonathan, governors meeting ends in stalemate

The peace meeting between President Goodluck Jonathan and Peoples Democratic Party governors ended in a stalemate in the early hours of Monday.

While Governor Aliyu Wamakko of Sokoto State told journalists that he attended the meeting alongside his Kano counterpart, Rabiu Kwankwaso to formally inform the President of their defection to the All Progressive Congress, Governor Godswill Akpabio said no such issue was discussed at the meeting.

Akpabio, who is the chairman of the PDP Governors Forum, however said Wamakko was at liberty to leave the party as thousands of the party members in Sokoto State will remain in the party.
