Sacked chairman of the Peoples Democratic
Party (PDP), Senator Ali Modu Sheriff has said that he was not invited to the
party’s caucus meeting on Monday at the PDP’s National Secretariat.
Sheriff, who reacted on Tuesday to media
reports that he was absent at the PDP Caucus meeting, appealed to members of
his camp not to decamp to other parties. Through the former spokesmen of his National Working Committee (NWC), Bernard Mikko, Senator Sheriff said that he
will address a press conference on the way forward, after studying the Supreme
Court judgment.
He said: “Senator Ali Modu Sheriff was
neither in the country nor invited to the assemblage at Wadata Plaza yesterday
evening. “However, he will address a world press conference to throw light on
the way forward after we have received and studied the full judgement of the
Supreme Court and analysed its import on our democracy. We, therefore, appeal
to all our loyal supporters nationwide not to defect as we are still committed
to bringing the party back to the grassroots.
“We assure them that we will not only give
them a voice, but they will also be heard. We will collaborate with global
anti-corruption networks to bring all corrupt politicians in Nigeria to book,
including PDP members having criminal cases bothering on dishonesty and
malfeasance,” he said. Share this:
