Jonathan endorsed Diri and made the call when PDP Governors visited him, Friday night, at his Abuja residence.

An elated PDP Chieftain in the State quipped: “A combination of Jonathan and Governor Dickson is too much. It is one nobody can ignore. It is too formidable”.

With the public endorsement, it is expected that a few PDP members who recently decamped to the opposition APC, will make an about-turn.

In a statement he personally signed, Feghagha said: “I have reconsidered my decision. I will remain in the party and the government.”

On his relationship with Dickson,  he said they had met, and discussed, attributing his earler decision to resign, as a  problem of communication gap. “Over the years, we have shared bonds of friendship and mystic cord of brotherhood which cannot be sacrificed on the altar of political exigencies”, Feghagha, who immediately took a photograph with Dickson, to the admiration of all present, said.
