Senator Ali Modu Sheriff, a former caretaker committee Chairman of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) initially had a setback in his bid to re-join the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
It was gathered that Sheriff, a former governor of Borno State and three term senator, will return along with PDP’s 2015 gubernatorial candidate in Borno State, Alhaji Gambo Lawan.
Unfortunately, he didn't get the 'royal attention' he desired as he was directed by the national party leadership to join at the ward level. It appears that his transfer move has been completed with Ali Modu Sheriff pictured in company of APC members.
Former National Chairman of PDP Ali Modu Sherriff attended major stakeholders meeting of the All Progressives Congress, APC, which took place at the Multi-Purpose Hall of the Government House in Maiduguri.
Others in attendance are Governor Kashim Shettima of Borno, Mutawalli Kashim Imam and others.
