Heading the 25-member National Reconciliation Committee of the Peoples Democratic Party is Olagunsoye Oyinlola, the former governor of Osun State.

In addition, Chief Anicho Okoro has been assigned the role of Administrative Secretary of the committee.
Among the other members of the committee are Chibudom Nwuche, Alhaji Bello Tafidan Gusau, Senator Ben Ndi Obi, Senator Tunde Ogbeha, Senator Shuaibu Isa Lau, Dr. Esther Uduehi, Senator Zainab Kure, Kabiru Tanimu Turaki, Alhaja Mutia Olayinka Ladoja, Dr. Abimbola Ogunkelu, and Ude Oko-Chukwu.
