According to NAN, Fayose apologised to all aggrieved members who he said he might have wronged while in government.
He said, “We are on a mission to reposition the party because truly we need a new attitude as members of this party, “he said.
“We must tell ourselves the truth that there is nothing to share in failure and we must join hands to achieve something tangible.
“I know some persons are aggrieved and I know we are humans. I apologise to all those that I have offended.
“Let us come together in unity for this our party not to die in this state. That is my priority as a leader.
