The Board of Trustees of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has expressed confidence in the Sen. Bukola Saraki-led Reconciliation and Strategy Committee of the party towards the unity of purpose ahead of the 2023 poll.

PDP Board Chairman, Sen. Walid Jubril made this known while speaking with journalists after the committee’s meeting with the board members on Thursday in Abuja.

Jubril said that with the caliber of people in the committee, the BOT was sure that the PDP would come out stronger and united ahead of the 2023 elections.

“We are giving them 100 percent support to carry out this assignment. They are fearless. They should not fear anybody and no issue of money should be involved in this exercise.

“We trust Saraki. We know he is the kind of person that cannot be bought by anybody. So we will fully support him and continue to give him our 100 percent support,” he said.

Jubril said the board had given its recommendations to the committee, believing that it would enrich its report and assignments.

Jubril who said that majority of members of the committee members were BOT members, said the board was happy with the committee, expressing confidence that it would deliver a very good result.
