He urged members to respect the party Constitution at all times, adding that PDP would come out stronger, vibrant and more united during and after 2019 elections.

"All party members are charged to always see themselves as one family and not to see politics as a do-or-die affair.

"The resolution committee will ensure that each of the senatorial districts presents an aspirant out of the many aspirants that will want to contest in future.

"Aspirants who have indicated interest to contest for any position will be expected to agree on only one aspirant to avoid any disagreement."

He said this will enable the party to avoid distractions and pool resources to defeat other parties’ candidates.
