The
sacked National Chairman of the PDP, Senator Ali Modu Sheriff, yesterday,
packed out of the party’s national secretariat in Abuja following his defeat at
the Supreme Court.
Sheriff,
however, said that he was still in shock at the judgement which removed him
from office.
In
a statement by the erstwhile spokesman of his faction, Bernard Mikko, Sheriff
said that he was still waiting for his lawyers to brief him on the details of
the judgement.
“We
received with shock the judgement of the Supreme Court on the leadership of the
PDP. Though we still await the full written judgement of the highest court from
our lawyers who would fully brief us on the details of the judgement; in the
interim, we ask all members and supporters to remain steadfast in prayers for
Nigeria.
“Meanwhile,
we would continue with our avowed demands that the party must be given back to
the owners at the grassroots to always elect their party officials, and those
to contest elections for them at all levels. Internal democracy must be
institutionalised in the party,” the statement said.
Sheriff’s
belongings were taken away from the Wadata Plaza, yesterday, in a navy blue
police pick up van.
