The meeting, which also saw attendance from prominent members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) such as Chief M. O. Taiwo, Otunba Tola Odulaja, Otunba Segun Odusole, and Prince Agbolade Oduyebo, concluded with a consensus on the need to strengthen the party’s position and select a formidable candidate.
