Wike says former PDP chairman should apologize to party

Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike has urged former Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Chairman, Ali Modu Sheriff to apologize to the party for his conduct during and after the national convention, which held on May 21, 2016, in Port Harcourt.

 

Wike made the call via a statement released by his media aide, Simeon Nwakaudu.

“We have seen that there is a hidden agenda. But nobody can destroy the PDP. PDP will wax stronger,” Wike said according to the statement.

“Those around the former acting National Chairman have questionable character. They are people who think that they can use the judiciary to cause crisis.

“In my entire political career, I have never seen a man with many opponents as Senator Sheriff. Modu Sheriff should apologize to the party,” Wike said.

Sheriff was removed from office during the convention and the party’s National Working Committee (NWC) was also dissolved.

Wike had earlier said that Sheriff had to be sacrificed for the good of the party.
