“Diverse as we are, it is, however, clear to me that we are at our best when we remember that we must remain focused and disciplined for the sake of our country and for the benefit our fellow Nigerians.
“In Nigeria, it is tough to remain an item, focused and disciplined, when being an opposition party.
“The temptation and allure of power can be overwhelming. Some have fallen along the way,” he said.

According to him, although there are attempts to scuttle the party’s activities, PDP remains united.
