- The caretaker chairman said in the past 18 months, his committee has
only had access to one bank account which has less than N2 million.
- He said the payments of staff salaries, office needs, maintenance
and operational expenses have been from party leaders and personal
sacrifices.
- “We virtually lived from hand to mouth. All that we have
succeeded in doing, including the payments of staff salaries, office
needs, maintenance and operational expenses have been from party leaders
and our personal sacrifices.”
- He said since the supreme court judgement which recognised the caretaker committee as valid, “things
have been calmer, even though there are still some outstanding legal
issues involving Ogun state as well as the south-west zonal leadership”.
- “It is my hope that before long, litigations will cease to be
the vehicle through which we resolve our issues in the PDP, as the party
has adequate internal mechanisms of conflict resolution that are far
better than washing our linens in public,” Makarfi said.
- “I appeal to all members of our great party to eschew division
and rancour and imbibe the culture of subsuming their individual
interests into the larger interest of the party as the party is such a
huge umbrella that is big enough to accommodate the interests of all of
us.”
