‘The meeting emphasized the need for party discipline and restated zero tolerance for anti-party activities and sabotage. No individual or group of individuals will be allowed to undermine the unity of the party and its processes.

The stakeholders pledged commitment to repositioning and stabilizing the party. To this end, the healing and reconciliation process is in progress and yielding results.

The meeting signaled that unity and loyalty are still core values of the PDP and would be rewarded.

All the governors and organs of the party solidly support the PDP Presidential candidate, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, and the PDP Vice Presidential Candidate, Ifeanyi Okowa, to rescue the stolen mandate in the tribunal and would do everything lawful towards achieving this.

The governors will work in partnership with the party at the state and national levels to ensure good governance, transparency, and accountability.

The meeting congratulated the party for impaneling the campaign councils for the off-session elections in Bayelsa, Imo, and Kogi states and urged the campaign councils to ensure victory for the party in the three states.

The meeting counseled the Federal Government to show leadership in curtailing the cost of governance. 48 Ministers and several Special Advisers and Assistants should be reduced to ensure the health of our economy.

The meeting advised the President, Commander in Chief, and the Government of the Federal Republic of Nigeria not to go into any form of war with the Republic of Niger over the recent military coup in the country. Rather, all tools of dialogue and diplomacy should be further employed’  the PDP leaders submitted in the  communiqué.
