He said neither him nor any member of the caretaker committee had, however, joined the proposed Advanced Peoples Democratic Party.
There have been reports that some politicians in the Makarfi camp are behind the move to register the APDP as a rival political party to the PDP, which is under the leadership of Ali Modu Sheriff.
The party, which has been in a crisis for more than a year now, has been further polarised since the Court of Appeal, Port Harcourt Division, pronounced Sheriff, the former governor of Borno State, as the authentic national chairman of the PDP.
Though Makarfi had appealed the judgment, former President Goodluck Jonathan had stepped into the crisis with a promise to a find political solution to the protracted leadership tussle.
With a new political party about to be registered, which has the resemblance of the PDP, there are insinuations that one of the camps may not be sincere with the proposed deal.
