ATIKU ABUBAKAR (pictured above), presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), is expected to attend the grand rally of the party in Osun state.
According to knowledgeable sources, the PDP candidate is cutting his European trip short ahead of the final rally before the governorship election slated for next Saturday.
Atiku was criticised over his absence at the Ekiti governorship campaign trail.
Biodun Oyebanji, the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate, won the Ekiti governorship election, defeating Bisi Kolawole, standard-bearer of the PDP, and Segun Oni, flag bearer of the Social Democratic Party (SDP).
Fayose recently ruffled feathers by saying the presidency should shift to the south in 2023 despite Atiku being a northerner.
Although there are speculations that Wike may leave the party, Bukola Saraki, former senate president, has said the Rivers governor will not defect.
Ahead of the Osun poll, the PDP has been making efforts to resolve the crisis in its fold.
