“I can see light now at the end of the tunnel. I am more reassured than ever that this convention will take place and it will be free and fair, given the new leadership put in place by Mr President. What needs to be done is to give every member of the party a sense of belonging. Not forgetting the founding fathers and the parties that came together to form the APC. One is the CPC; the ACN led by Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu; APGA led by Rochas Okorocha and ANPP led by Yari, Shettima, Onu and a host of them and not forgetting the new PDP.”
“If these people are carried along and the governors are recognized as the leaders of the party, we shall have a peaceful convention,” the lawmaker said.
