Addresses Zibadawa Timmy's comment
Aug 17, 2018 at 6:38 comment added zibadawa timmy Leaving part of the proof to the comments is not recommended, as comments can be deleted at any time, and it makes it painful for readers to find what they want even if they remain (especially readers that weren't actively monitoring the Q&A as it unfolded).

Integrates Geoff Robinson's remark
Aug 15, 2018 at 21:20 comment added Geoff Robinson You might remark that in the situation of the question, the center is a direct factor of the group.

Consider $Z(G) \cap V$ instead of $Z(G)$ since this the relevant subgroup to pass to a quotient group.
Aug 15, 2018 at 18:27 comment added Luc Guyot @DerekHolt Many thanks, I got it now. It is corrected: $Z(G)$ is two-generated in the aforementioned case.

Fixes issue raised by Derek Holt regarding the rank of the center
Aug 15, 2018 at 18:25 comment added Derek Holt But $X$ is acting trivially on $Z(G)$ so that makes no difference.

Removes ambiguity with the word "cyclic"
Aug 15, 2018 at 18:04 comment added Derek Holt I don't believe that your final sentence is correct. $Z(G)$ can have order $q^2$ and you can choose generators of order $pq$.
