He said: ?The national leadership has immense respect for the dictates of the?provisions of the PDP constitution with regard to structure, roles and?powers of our party leadership at all levels and will ensure that this is respected at all times.
?Members of the committees are indeed notable and respectable leaders of the party who know that it is not within their schedule to interfere with the party structures in the states.”
In the meantime, the National Working Committee (NWC) of the PDP has?set up an eight-man Caretaker Committee for Yobe State.
