"They Couldn’t Even Help Themselves": Shehu Sani Lampoons Wike, Other G5 Governors After Atiku's Loss

• Senator Shehu Sani has said that the G5 governors could not have helped Atiku Abubakar emerge as Nigeria's president
• Sani said it was important to note the governors, led by Nyesom Wike of Rivers state, could not help their political careers considering past elections
• According to the former lawmaker, Nigerian youths have taken over power from the older crop of politicians, and it's no longer business as usual

A former lawmaker who represented Kaduna Central Senatorial District has thrown shade at members of the Peoples Democratic Party's G5 governors.

Sani, in a post on his personal Twitter account, said the governors could not effectively save themselves in the heat of the 2023 general election.

The G5 governors comprise Nyesom Wike of Rivers state, Seyi Makinde of Oyo state, Okezie Ikpeazu of Abia state, Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of Enugu state and Samuel Ortom of Benue state.

"Stop shading me, you lost your senatorial bid": Atiku blasts Wike-led G5 governors

At the peak of the 2023 campaigns and the election proper, the governors had registered their grievances with the leadership of the PDP.

The G5, through their leader Wike, called on the 2023 presidential candidate of the PDP, Atiku Abubakar, to do what was right by ensuring the resignation of Iyorchia Ayu, the national chairman of the party, but the calls fell on deaf ears.

Details gathered by Legit.ng show that the rift between the governors and the party began after the PDP's primary election, which saw Atiku emerge as the 2023 presidential candidate.

The Integrity Group (G5) also boasted that Atiku would not be able to win the 2023 presidential election without their involvement.

However, in his post, Sani said the G5 governors would not have made any difference to the PDP in the 2023 presidential election.

"They failed to realise that the masses have gone beyond taking commanding instruction from governors; governors now beg."
