Investigations revealed that the loyalists of Yari are in quandary on what to do next.
According go impeccable sources very close to Matawalle, said most of the serving commissioners in Yari’s cabinet have allegedly been trooping his house to show their support for the PDP governorship candidate, believing that he would emerge the next governor of the state come May 29th 2019.
