Saying he has been talking with aggrieved PDP members who have indicated interest to work for APC, he urged APC members in the State to close ranks by forgetting the past and work with the unity of purpose to ensure victory for the Omo-Agege/Osanebi ticket in 2023.

While urging aggrieved members of the party to bury the hatchet and move forward, Orubebe said he took it upon himself to meet personally with aggrieved leaders of APC immediately he joined the party.
