He said, “I would like to say that the convention planned for the 30th of this month is on and we’re going to be there and carry out our duties and improve our party.
The chairman also urged Secondus not to make the former ruling party ungovernable adding that it will be very wrong for Secondus, being a founding member of the PDP, to make the party ungovernable.
“Could it be now that he goes against what the party is doing, what the party intends to do? I say it will be very wrong if Secondus is taking another fight completely, yielding the course to solve his problem.
“Everything will come to an end. He had been in this party since the formation of the party. Is he going to die, what is going to happen to him? Let’s look at the party as supreme and go on with the decision of this party.
