I’m Ready o Step Down As PDP Chairman – Sheriff

Factional Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Senator Ali-Modu Sheriff has declared that he is ready to relinquish his position in the interest of the party.

Addressing reporters in Abuja, Sheriff said, “I am willing to relinquish the position for the party to move forward into achieving its goals.

“I will consult other leaders of our party to see how we can organise our national convention, to stop our division and leadership tussle.”

The former Borno State Governor stressed that the victory at the court was for all PDP members, including those belonging to the Makarfi faction.

Sheriff expressed hope that all aggrieved members will come back to the party.

He said: “There are no victors or losers. We are tired of losing elections and must unite to return to winning ways”.

Sheriff however, added that “all the State Congresses held prior to the Port Harcourt convention stands. Therefore, existing State Executives remain intact”.
