Adeyemo said, “The new executive committees at all levels have enormous tasks before them, and now is the best time for them to set forth. We have a lot to do in the areas of sustaining unity, integrating new members, ensuring members’ welfare, as well as engaging, sensitising, and mobilising voters.
“Without mincing words, the new Exco members will be at the forefront of actualising these daunting tasks, and we shall not disappoint as individuals and as a team.
“While we are not unmindful of disagreements in a few local government areas, we want to assure members that all genuine complaints will be addressed by a Peace Committee, which is due to be inaugurated on Monday.
“Despite the fact that we have achieved so much through our reconciliation efforts, we shall continue to listen to individual members of the party who have genuine cases against one another as fellow party faithful.”
