A member of the Integrity Group and former Plateau state Governor Jonah Jang has faulted Director-General All Progressives Congress Presidential Campaign Council, Governor Simon Lalong’s claim that the G-5 governors, led by Rivers state Governor Nyesom Wike, were supporting the party’s presidential candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
The rest members of the group are Benue state Governor Samuel Ortom Ifeanyi Ugwanyi of Enugu state, Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia state and Oyo state Governor Seyi Makinde.
In a statement Sunday, Jang said Nigerians no longer took anything coming from Lalong seriously.
The statement, signed by Jang’s media consultant, Clinton Garuba, said: “Obvious sign that Lalong is daydreaming is him thinking that the G5 PDP governors and allies including former Governor Jang are supporting Tinubu.”
“They have repeatedly said that they do not have personal problems with Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party, but with the process that brought him up.”
“Yes, the integrity group has disagreements with the PDP and their withdrawal of support for Atiku’s campaign does not in any way suggest that they support the APC candidate. Only Lalong and his fellow dreamers think so.”
