He also assured that aggrieved members will be allowed to ventilate their grievances. He promised the committee would ask in it’s recommendation that aggrieved members be carried along.

He said the committee will ensure those who could not get the party tickets are reunited with the party but noted it won’t stop anyone seeking redress if still not satisfied.

“We will ensured all aggrieved persons remain in the party. But then, we cannot preclude or stop anyone from going to court, because It is their fundamental rights enshrined in the constitution,” he explained.
