Although now of different political parties and affiliations, the stakeholders believe that putting the interest of Nigeria ahead of any personal gain is paramount, especially as the Country tilts towards collapse except rescued through good governance.
According to him, those preaching the language of Presidential Candidates other than Atiku Abubakar will be resisted in the state because the February election will not be approached with sentiments but based on the capacity to provide the much needed leadership for the country.
A PDP Presidential Campaign office was also opened for operation in the state, during the meeting.
