Ali Modu Sheriff, the national chairman of the Peoples
Democratic Party (PDP) has been tagged a man sent by God, “to rid Nigerian
politics of impunity.”
According to Bernard Mikko, spokesman of the PDP faction led
by Sheriff, the ex-governor is poised to “eliminate all forms of lawlessness
and impunity,” perpetrated by some members of the party.
Mikko told newsmen in Abuja on Monday that Sheriff would,
“eliminate all forms of lawlessness and impunity” perpetrated by some members
of the party.
He said the national chairman was working to ensure that the
party returns to its ‘glorious days.”
Mikko, however, accused some PDP chieftains of working
against the party especially ahead of the 2019 elections.
“I can tell you at this point that Ali Modu Sheriff was divinely sent by God to rid Nigerian politics of impunity, he is the only cure to impunity not only in the PDP but also in the APC and all other political parties,” he said.
“Impunity must end in the PDP; in fact this kind of conflict is not bad because it will help to resolve a lot of things that have gone wrong in the past.
“All political parties will learn from what is happening today in the PDP. So until they try to force out somebody and the person resists and they fail, they will not learn from it.
“Even though the philosophy of the political party has not been clearly defined, Nigerians know PDP and they know APC and what they stand for. So, if PDP today as the only truly national party presents a credible candidate, it is left for Nigerians to decide whether to still go with APC or choose the PDP.”
Mikko said since the return of democracy in 1999, no other
party has fought corruption like the PDP.
“With the first two months of the PDP administration in 1999 a speaker of the house of assembly was removed just for age falsification, various senate presidents were impeached, governors were impeached as well as a serving inspector general of police,” he said.Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday
“So whoever is telling you that PDP doesn’t fight corruption or won’t fight corruption if returned to power at the federal level is being economical with the truth.”
