Energy Secretary Alfonso Cusi on Saturday was elected the PDP-Laban's new president.
Cusi was among those expelled from the party in early July amid the growing rift between his faction and that of PDP-Laban's former acting president Sen. Manny Pacquiao.
Some 10,000 PDP-Laban members supposedly signed a manifesto against him and other officials, according to a statement by PDP-Laban executive-director Ron Munsayac. Party Secretary-General Melvin Matibag this week said the assembly on Friday and Saturday aimed to discuss the committee council reports, as well as hold elections for the party's new leaders.More details to follow.
