Lafia – The immediate past Board of Trustees, BOT, Chairman of the People’s Democratic party (PDP), Senator Walid Jibril has boasted that the G5 Governors will not abandon the party inspite of the current feud.

Walid who made this known in an  interview with journalists in Marmara, Nasarawa state  on Wednesday, denied resigning his position as PDP BOT Chairman because of the G-5 governors saga, but rather on mutual understanding.
