Hammed Shittu in Ilorin The opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Kwara State has set up a reconciliation committee to resolve lingering internal disagreements, strengthen unity and reposition the party

The opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Kwara State has established a reconciliation committee to address internal disputes, enhance unity, and bolster the party's chances in the upcoming 2027 general election. The committee is led by Dr. Suleiman Atolagbe Alege, a former Commissioner for Health and prominent party figure.

During a press conference in Ilorin, the state capital, PDP Chairman Hon. Issa Adamu Bawa revealed the committee's objectives, stating that it aims to strengthen grassroots structures, mend relationships among members and stakeholders, and fortify political alliances ahead of the election. Bawa highlighted that a party's success hinges on unity, discipline, effective communication, internal democracy, and the ability to reconcile diverse interests.

He urged the committee members to view their assignment as a significant political responsibility rather than a mere administrative task and to engage extensively with various stakeholders across Kwara Central. Bawa stressed that the PDP must remain an inclusive platform that accommodates diverse opinions while adhering to its constitutional framework, leadership structures, democratic principles, and collective goals.

He emphasized that the committee should identify areas of disagreement, listen to grievances, promote constructive dialogue, rebuild trust, and propose practical solutions to strengthen party cohesion. Alege, on behalf of the committee, expressed gratitude to Bawa and the State Working Committee for entrusting him and his colleagues with this crucial task.

He pledged the committee's commitment to integrity, neutrality, maturity, inclusiveness, fairness, and responsibility, vowing to engage stakeholders at all levels and provide a credible platform for members to contribute to the party's growth and development. He urged all stakeholders to embrace the reconciliation initiative in good faith and prioritize the party's overall interest over personal differences.
