Sheriff made the comment on Thursday, June 23, 2016, during a media briefing in Abuja, The Nation reports.

“I am ashamed at the way and manner Fayose is conducting himself in the country. I was once a governor so I know that the position of governor is a very serious one that demands responsible behaviour,” Sheriff said.

“I never told anybody I wanted to run for president and I did not promise anybody the vice presidential ticket. I have decided not to join issues with Fayose,” Sheriff added.
