Following the Appeal court’s ruling in Port Harcourt on Friday that recognized Ali Modu Sheriff but nullified Senator Ahmed Makarfi as the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP’s, legitimate chairman, former Spokesperson to ex- President Goodluck Jonathan’s campaign Organisation, Chief Femi Fani- Kayode has said that “It’s time for us to gut the PDP, leave its carcass for the treacherous mole called Sheriff and form a new party.”
Fani-Kayode made the statement on Friday in a series of tweets while reacting to the Justice B.G Sanga-led three member-panel ruling.
Describing the decision that gave victory to Sheriff as absurd and simply a victory to President Muhammadu Buhari, Fani-Kayode said it is time he and supposedly other members of the party from the Markafi faction to leave the party and it’s carcass to Sheriff and form a new one.
"The decision by the Court of Appeal in PH to recognise Senator Ali Modu Sheriff as the Nat. Chairman of the PDP is a victory for @MBuhari.”
