“The last time we held a meeting, we were able to harmonise the differences between committee of former Chairmen, Management and the NMA. We are working to resolve the impasse. We don’t believe that the document flying around emanated from them, because CPC, is working to resolve the whole issues.
In the same vein, the Secretary of Committee of former Chairmen, of NMA, Dr. Kabir Zubair disclosed that there was no time that the Association met and approved such position and if somebody approved such, he does so, on his own volition.
