The PDP spokesperson said that the only correspondence received by the appeal committee was from Senator Biodun Olujimi who notified the appeal committee of her desire to withdraw from the governorship election because of no congress in two local governments which are part of her primary constituency.
Ologunagba said that the national leadership of the party would take an active part in the reconciliation and campaigns in the forthcoming governorship in the state.
