According to Dokpesi, “It is in furtherance of my democratic ideals that returning power to the people must first begin with discussions with the people.”

Meanwhile, efforts to end the feud in the PDP has constantly hit a brick wall, following the insistence of Ali Modu Sheriff that his tenure as chairman of the party will end in 2018.

Sheriff was removed during the PDP convention in Port-Harcourt, Rivers state, on Saturday, May 22, 2016.

The PDP National Convention is slated to hold on August 17, 2016, in Port Harcourt, Rivers state.
