The meeting with the PDP aspirants which held at Atiku’s Asokoro residence Abuja had in attendance Dele Momodu, Mohammed Hayatu-Deen, Tari Oliver, and Charles Ugwu.
However, former Senate Pius Anyim Bukola Saraki and Governor Emmanuel Udom of Akwa Ibom State did not attend the meeting.
The PDP Presidential Candidate commended the aspirants for accepting the outcome of the primaries.
