In a rare show of felicitation, Lauretta Onochie, President Muhammadu Buhari’s Special Adviser on New Media has congratulated Ali Modu Sheriff over his victory as the PDP chairman as endorsed by the Court of Appeal in Port Harcourt, Rivers State.
Ali Modu Sheriff
Lauretta Onochie yesterday took to her Twitter page to congratulate Senator Ali Modu Sheriff over his victory at the Appellate Court in a legal battle with the Ahmed Makarfi Caretaker Committee
It would be recalled that for over a year, both parties have been at war over the leadership of the People’s Democratic Party.
By implication, Ali Modu Sheriff is now the authentic National Party Chairman of the PDP as the opposing group heads to the Supreme Court to make its case.
All Progressives Congress chieftain, Mrs Onochie remains the only members of the ruling party to congratulate Sheriff publicly.
In the same vein, Senator, Ben Murray-Bruce has said he is in support of Ali Modu Sheriff as the National Chairman of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
According to him, supporting Sheriff and stop fighting is the only way to move the party forward.
"Concerning the PDP, the current bickering is childish and irrelevant. I am not in support of anymore litigation.
"We will work with Ali Modu Sheriff and go to a convention. Right now, PDP is on a course towards destruction and abiding by the judgment of the court is the only thing that can save us. In the first place, it is never the job of the judiciary to choose the leader of a party.
"I therefore call an end to the fighting. And I am supporting Ali Modu Sheriff because it is the only way to preserve the party. Right now, what Nigeria has is a one-party state – there is no opposition. Enough is enough. The is the time for PDP to unite, we are a formidable force!"
