The party Chairman told the Committee that they should reach out to the founding fathers of the party, under the aegis of a Group of 34 members, and ensure that they bring back members who held high positions.
He also added that the Committee should reach out to “former high ranking government officials, who came into office under the aegis of the PDP.
“This includes Presidents, Vices, Governors, and former Senate Presidents, Speakers of House of Representatives, and all other former top ranking members in the party.
