Firstly, the lawsuit filed by Buhari was against Abati for accusing him of makin "ungovernable statement" and it wasn't for BH tag. In fact, even when Buhari was attacked by the sect, some people openly said "he arranged his attack to gain sympathy". I don't think Sheriff need to file any lawsuit against his accusers as that is in itself a distraction.

That GEJ or anyone else make any accusation on Sheriff at any point in time doesn't make it statement of fact. GEJ is a politician and was President at that time. If Sheriff is/was, he'd have used State power to arrest and deal with him. Buhari is the CinC, he has the luxury of State powers if he thinks Sheriff is behind it. Otherwise, nobody has any case against the Alhaji.

When Azazi talked about PDP being behind BH, Sheriff was in ANPP and only moved to PDP in 2014. Azazi may be right because Senator Zanna was a PDP member as at then(before he defected to APC). This doesn't concern Alhaji Sheriff.

All your media links carries "alleged" meaning allegation and in fact, baseless allegation.

The first priority is to militarily stop the insurgency, rebuild the North East while prosecuting the sponsors. You know how long it takes to prosecute a 'big man' in Nigeria. Currently the judiciary in Nigeria is not even helping matters. I do not expect them to be prosecuting people in court while the NE burns.

If your house is on fire, you first put out the fire before you go to break the head of the arsonist.

Like I told you, this government is still in its infancy. After 4 years we can have a more meaningful discussion.

TonyeBarcanista:

What evil has Sheriff done? Go straight to presenting your case....

As for 'viable opposition', there is Kowa, Accord Party, SDP, Labour, APGA etc to worry yourself on. PDP isn't the only opposition and will not bend to the wish of APC loyalists.

Thanks....

I really wanted you sort out the main issue..... asking for a Presidential Candidate from the North, while the National Chairman is also from the North?!

TonyeBarcanista:
In my last article I discussed on the alleged link between the PDP Chairman Ali Modu Sheriff and the founders of Boko-Haram group. In the said article titled Setting The Record Straight on PDP Chairman Ali Modu Sheriff, the so-called allegation of Sheriff being the founder/financier of the haramite was made nonsense of, and it was even established that the former Governor was among those that dealt heavy blow on the terrorist group. He's also one that suffered heavy loss to the terrorist group and was seen as the number one enemy of the group.

Ideally, the talk of Sheriff and Boko Haram linkage shouldn't be a subject of discussion in our political space as no authority has at any time indicted the former Governor, but it appears that some fifth columnists within the PDP and those outside the party are determined to "humiliate" both Modu Sheriff and the party by whipping up the Boko Haram link propaganda. A very funny twist is that these people have made Sheriff an issue even when there are pressing issues in the country. When did Senator Modu Sheriff become an issue?

What Is Their Case Against Sheriff?
While I wouldn't want to join issues with Femi Fani Kayode, Doyin Okupe and some former Aides of ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, I believe that their reaction to SAS emergence as PDP number one boss is more of emotional than rational. FFK as Fani Kayode is fondly called libelled SAS by calling him the "indisputable founder of Boko Haram", but checks show that the leader of Boko Haram Muhammed Yusuf was a political ally of ex-Borno state Gov Mala Kachalla, Sheriff's political opponent in 2003 Gubernatorial election (who was defeated by Sheriff). In fact, Muhammed Yusuf benefited from Kachalla's government and no record shows that Sheriff had, any dealing with the late terrorist leader. If there is any candidate that Yusuf and his group supported in 2003, that person would be late Mala Kachalla and not Ali Modu Sheriff. Even Alhaji Buji Foi that was appointed Commissioner by Sheriff was a LGA boss during the administration of Mala Kachalla. In fact, Foi resigned from the government because Sheriff posture was unfriendly to the terrorist group. It was under Sheriff administration that terrorist Foi was captured before he was killed by the police. Is FFK and co travellers not aware of this fact? Does it make sense to tag the man that first outlawed Boko Haram as the "undisputed founder" of the group? Having lost his brother, brother inlaw, close friends and his candidate for 2011 gubernatorial election, isn't it clear that Sheriff is also a victim of Boko Haram insurgency? Has any authority indicted Sheriff on terrorism? Haven't this man suffered enough personal and psychological damage? If for anything, his emergence as PDP boss is a victory against Boko Haram.

I understand that some of Jonathan's ex-Aides had wanted to hijack the party structure to further their own interest. It is also an open secret that ex SSA on Media Doyin Okupe is one of the campaigners for GEJ's ex-political Adviser Ahmed Gulak Chairmanship bid. The present reality is that the camp of GEJ's ex-Aides have lost out in the power struggle. What is expected of them is to join hands with the Chairman to move the party forward. It is immoral, unnecessary and improper for this group to launch media onslaught against the party and the Chairman simply because their camp lost out in the power game. They should sheath their swords or go to court if they aren't satisfied with the arrangement.

Nothing Wrong With Sheriff's Appointment
He's a former two-term Governor and a former three-time Senator. He has the posture and can never be bullied or controlled by any Governor or group within or outside the party. He has the experience as a former ANPP BoT boss to lead a party like PDP and reposition it for greatness. He deserves every support from party men and women, and deserved to be judged fairly by patriotic Nigerians. There is nothing wrong with Sheriff's appointment. He is the new Sheriff in town, and should not be distracted.


Finally, what is the case against Senator Ali Modu Sheriff?

It's funny how people misjudge situations like this. Obviously because BT is a 'news' website, then it automatically means 'Barcanista must have copied from them.'

A few days ago I made a comment here on NL on the state of the economy just before GEJ handed over. 24 hours later, I saw exactly my own words copied and published on a website/blog, but the difference was that my statements were reported as a being said by Buhari. I was more than shocked

TonyeBarcanista:

Drop which matter? You should have just correct him and ask him to modify his comment. I don't think it is appropriate to take disagreement on issues to another level. A check on the dates would have helped him. Smh....

modath:


I posted before i saw your posts, i responded to your mention, i wasn't following in order to be disagreeable, most times i comment, KIM & would only do rejoinder when i get "metioned" ....


BTW who is Jude Ndukwe ? Alter ego? Cos this plagiarism is for the gods & why didn't the "person" make corrections like you did You corrected it to Malla soon as i drew your attention to it but the BT own that was "posted" a day aftee still has same Bala ...

Just asking ni o?


@ Obailala ... intellectual property theft is not a problem let alone a crime in the "eyes" of our people.... SMH

TonyeBarcanista:

Hahaahahahah @credited to Buhari. I think it has to do with the unprofessional attitude of bloggers and some social commentators. There was a day when someone shared an article with me written by "annonymous". I looked at it and I said, I wrote this. Luckily for me, I directed him to the original write-up. He was surprised and I too. Perhaps the first lifter of the article neglected to credit the source or original writer. I've seen some NL threads on blogsites that were made to appear as though they were written by blogs admin.

I don't care about the PDP, but a viable opposition.

As for Sheriff? Hmm.....
Evil people like that are supposed to be thrown into an active volcano.
