Embattled Chairman of PDP, Ali Modu
Sheriff, says he will not be resigning
from his position as the party’s
Chairman despite the public outcry by
some members since his appointment.

Sheriff stated this at the PDP
secretariat in Abuja shortly after he
officially took over the party
leadership.

“I won’t resigned because the
leadership of the party, in their
wisdom, chose me to lead the PDP
for the purpose of rebuilding and
repositioning the party at this
critical period,”he said.

Reacting to allegations that he is a
sponsor of the Insurgency group,
Boko Haram, Sheriff said:-

“Boko Haram killed my own
brother. They killed members of
my family, so why should I
sponsor people to kill my own
brother, my own family.

I am not a fanatic. I love to enjoy
my life. Boko Haram are
criminals who live in the bush
and eat once a day. I believe their
sponsors will be caught at the end
of the day. I have nothing to do
with Boko Haram,” he said.

He singled out a former Aviation
Minister, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode ,
among the people linking him with
the terror sect, saying “ this time
around, people like Fani-Kayode
will not go scot free. ”
