He also urged them to elect Messrs Gbolahan Ogunleye and Aro Moshood during the polls.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe understand all the reasons our members are aggreived and we are here today to resolve them for the unity of our party.<\/p>\n
\u201cAny member who worked for the party will surely receive what is due to him or her, nobody will be shortchanged in anyway.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe have 232 polling units, having one captain at each who are aggreived, today they will all receive their honorarium as from now till tommorow.<\/p>\n
