It was learnt that the campaign rally was suspended at the instance of Atiku who, party sources said, had drafted three prominent PDP stakeholders to mediate in the standoff between him and the Rivers Governor.
Atiku had repeatedly drafted a former Senate President, David Mark; a former Rivers Governor, Peter Odili and a former Delta Governor, James Ibori as mediators.
It was further gathered that the campaign was suspended to give the three new “arbitrators” a chance to reach out to Wike and try to resolve the crisis.
