He urged all delegates to conduct themselves in an orderly manner, vote, and leave the venue of the Primaries.
According to the statement, “there are five Aspirants in the contest, it must be understood that this is a family affair. There shall be no victor nor vanquished in this race. Everybody shall be a winner, bearing in mind that, the earlier occupier of the office, was a PDP man. No sacrifice is too much to ensure that the PDP retains the seat at the Green Chamber”
