Ali Modu SheriffTVC NEWS: The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Board of Trustees, BoT, has rejected erstwhile governor of Borno state, Ali Modu Sheriff as the party’s National Chairman
Spokesperson of the People Democratic Party has said that Senator Ali Modu-Sheriff was substantive and not an acting National Chairman of the party.
Metuh made this known in a statement he signed yesterday Thursday.
The statement reads:
“The leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) wishes to draw the attention of the media and members of the public that His Excellency, Senator Ali Modu-Sheriff is substantive and not acting National Chairman of the PDP as being erroneously rendered by a section of the media.
“His appointment by the National Executive Committee (NEC) of our great party in its 68th meeting last Tuesday, to replace Dr. Ahmadu Adamu Mu’azu, who resigned as National Chairman, is in line with section 47(6) of the PDP Constitution, which empowers NEC to fill a vacant position with a person from the zone where the officer originated from. The PDP therefore urges the media and members of the public to note this accordingly.”
