In his reaction, the Director of Strategic Communications, Dele Momodu called the stories falsehood.<\/p>\n

The spokesperson confirmed that the party\u2019s campaign, which commenced this week in Akwa Ibom\u2019s capital Uyo, was on course.<\/p>\n

\u201cAbsolute falsehood…unlike the APC which is yet to put its act together, our Atiku\/Okowa Presidential Campaign Council has taken off at supersonic speed. See you soon in Kaduna by God\u2019s grace,\u201d Momodu said.<\/p>\n

It was claimed the rallies were suspended at the instance of Atiku who was said to have dispatched three PDP stalwarts to speak with Wike.<\/p>\n

The mediators are reportedly ex-Senate President David Mark, former Rivers Governor Peter Odili and former Delta Governor James Ibori.<\/p>\n
