"We can't do it without starting from the house, PDP is one family and PDP has come together, PDP is a winning party and PDP is a party to beat.

" I don't think anybody is hanging around, we are going to have expanded stakeholders meeting soon where you will see all the faces together and every one of them is to work for the betterment of PDP.

On efforts to curb attacks on PDP members, especially the recent attack on Mr. Abia Onyike, he said, "What we are doing about it is that we are not relenting, we are trying to study it very well, PDP is not scared of anything or any Ebubeagu. We are to study the events and then we will approach it the way we think best and stop it.
