Tofowomo, in a statement issued by his media aide, Mr Olumide Akinrinlolain Okitipupa, on Thursday, said that the crisis was caused by a series of agitations and interest of the party’s gladiators and their followers which he said can not be over emphasised.
“I can assure you that the PDP will not be trapped in this temporary crisis because PDP is the only alternative party that can replace the ruling All Progresdives Congress (APC).

The lawmaker, however, appealed to party chieftains, leaders and members to sheath their swords for party decision to reign supreme, adding that Nigerians are looking up to the party at tbe 2023 elections. (NAN)
