Governor Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti State has called on stakeholders to support the new National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Senator Ali Modu Sheriff, saying; “his emergence at this time is the best thing in the present circumstance and those aggrieved should sheath their sword and deploy their time and resources into fighting the All Progressives Congress (APC) instead of their own party.”

In a statement by his Special Assistant on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka, the Governor said; “it is regrettable that those who abandoned the PDP to its fate when it lost power and did not say a word to defend the party have now found their voice against a decision taken in accordance with the party’s constitution.”
The governor who reiterated his commitment to the party, said; “With my antecedent as someone who have always defended the party, I can’t be linked with any decision that will not be in the best interest of the party. I therefore call on all my admirers and believers in my dogged fight for the revival of our party to support our new chairman, whom I believe has the required capacity to reposition the party.”
He described those linking the new chairman to the Boko Haram insurgents as mischief makers, asking; “Has Ali Modu Sheriff been tried and convicted by any court for sponsoring Boko Haram? Is he even being tried for involvement in Boko Haram activities?
“Even APC Senator Ali Ndume is being tried for allegedly making contacts with the Boko Haram sect 73 times and he is still the Senate Leader.
“Also, Ali Modu Sheriff and their ‘Saint Buhari’ are in-laws courtesy of his (Sheriff) son’s marriage to Buhari’s daughter and no one has called the President a Boko Haram sponsor by association. Or are they also saying President Buhari could have allowed his own daughter to marry the son of Ali Modu Sheriff if he was indeed a Boko Haram sponsor?”
While describing the emergence of Ali Modu Sheriff as constitutional, Governor Fayose said all stakeholders like the National Working Committee members, Governors, Senators, House of Representatives members, BOT members and others took part in the processes that produced the new chairman.
He said the party could only be repositioned when decisions of the party leaders are respected, calling on those aggrieved with the emergence of the chairman to be mindful of the supremacy of the party over and above other interests.
The governor reminded members and supporters of the PDP that “the party was in a peculiar situation and we need people who can stand up against these devourers of our collective heritage. I can say it confidently that Senator Ali Modu Sheriff is such a person and in the collective interest of our party, we should all rally round him.”

Bird of the same feather fly together; Fayose the clownish governor calling for support for fellow gang leader SAS.

We should all support the PDP as they escort the corpse of their dead party to sambisa forest through the unable leadership of Sen Ali-modu Sheriff, after all they have no option.

Fayose making sence since 1983

Dis guy u get pdp blood

Interesting angle. I didn't know sas and buhari are in law.

Accusation of deceit has followed Ali modu sherrif even when he was in anpp, crossed to pdp, then apc and now back to pdp.
Nigerian politicians don't half speak nonsense; so don't be surprised to see fayose bashing sherrif tomorrow when he inevitably betray pdp.
If pdp were serious party; should have gone for a clean break. Someone without baggage.

Please i need an interpreter.
Anyway don't give up yet as the PDP may resurrect in the Republic of Chad and turn to be their ruling party then because of SAS Chadian connection & origin.
