The former President afterwards thanked the former Speakers and promised to work with all party stakeholders in the rebuilding process in PDP.
A ruling by the Supreme Court in July declaring Senator Ahmed Makarfi, as the bonafide National Chairman of the party had put to rest a 14-month leadership tussle between Makarfi and Senator Ali Modu Sheriff which had threatened to tear the party apart.
