He urged the NWC members to prioritise reconciliation and bring back members who have defected to other political parties.
He also urged the party leaders to initiate programmes that would make the party attractive to Nigerians.

“Make sure you attract them back into the fold, talk to them, send a powerful team to interact with them. Most of them are afraid whether they will get a ticket or not.
“You know what to do. I am sure that Nigerians will prefer PDP than all of those parties that are shouting here and there” he said.
He also commended the party leadership for the ongoing renovation works at the party’s national secretariat.

“Yes, elections have been held. After elections, you will need the support of every party member, morally and otherwise and so, I’ve come here to pledge my support and my loyalty to all of you.
