”We recognized and appreciate the efforts of Governor Akeredolu in saving the soul of our party. Ordinarily, as a second term Governor who doesn’t need the ticket of the party anymore, Akeredolu could have been indifferent about happenings in our party.
“But he has shown that he is a loyal party man. His commitment to the progress and survival of our party is alluring. We will continue to follow the path he has created for some of us who are desirous of progress and longevity of our great party.
“A blunt man and fearless leader. His intervention on the issue of our National convention and the controversy that surrounded the issue of Governor Mai Mala Buni and Governor Abubakar Sani Bello as Chairman of the Party’s Caretaker committee, shown his passion for the party’s survival.
