“I am sure most of you must have heard that our Governors, the Integrity Group, said yesterday that the window of reconciliation has not been shot permanently.
“We have been at it for some time trying to see how we can bring everybody under the same umbrella. So hopefully, in the next couple of days and weeks, all of us will be able to work as one family. PDP is the biggest political family in Africa and we want it to remain so” he said.
