At a recent meeting in Umuahia, the party set up a 29-member caretaker committee with former finance minister Nenadi Usman as Chairperson.
The 29-member committee has been rejected by a group in the party that feels that officials of the party at all levels still have subsisting tenures.
But Bobai, who is seeking the party’s ticket to contest the House of Representatives seat that became vacant with the death of Adams Ekene, told said that the feud would soon be resolved.
“The party is working toward uniting all contending interests; we all should see the need for one strong, cohesive and indivisible force.
“We should all realise that we are better together and that we need each other to form a strong force capable of winning elections which is the sole goal of a political party.

“The party has factions, but its members in all the factions know that we cannot win any election if we are divided.
“We all know that a house divided against itself is bound to fail. We do not want to fail,” he said.
