ALI MODU SHERIFF; THE BURIER OF PDP

One would have thought PDP had learnt from its plethora of political miscalculations during the last election, having been thrown out from the political arena in such an ignominious way.
Making an unwise decision bordering on the most reverend and exalted position of the party at this juncture will be too costly.
How can the north east caucus and the governors nominate Ali Modu Sheriff as the candidate from North east to pilot the affairs of PDP. Personally, PDP is dead on arrival, if this erroneous selection of Alli Modu Sheriff is upheld by the PDP BOT.
One would have expected a political wizard like Wilberforce Junta to be the new chairman of the party, someone with an unmatched political experience, one who has been a staunch member of the party with an unflinching loyalty and vehement believe in the party resuscitation, couple with his vast experience on grass roots politics, also with no track record of financial thievery. Wilberforce Junta is not only political dodged, he is free from financial misappropriation and no history of criminal record. What PDP need at this perilous moment is a leader with an unblemished file and Wilberforce Junta is likely the only candidate with such political credentials.
As at yesterday Ali Modu Sheriff was not part of the nominees screened by the North east Caucus, out of the blues his name was smuggled into the folds with the ex- EFCC boss Nuhu Ribadu.
One is left to explicitly analyse this clandestine shenanigans as the handiwork of the ruling party in a bid to infiltrate into the once buoyant party.
In furtherance of,Ali modu's nomination should not be confirmed by the PDP BoT, being that; he is a man with questionable idiosyncrasies, he was once accused of financing the dreaded Boko Haram: Also he is a man who has dua loyalty for the party (ANPP)and PDP. One fundamental error PDP BoT will make by confirming Ali Modu as the chairman of the dying PDP is to make a man who doesn't have the political clouts needed to put back PDP on track and who doesn't control the loyalty of the north east leaders and the rank and files, he also doesn't have the loyalty of majority of the PDP governors, reps. Members and senators.
Although, this is an inter-party affair, as an ardent believer of democracy and its principles, also as one who is keen in the political development of his country, it will political apartheid to be aloof of the political goings in ones domain.
If PDP truly wants to be a political force to be reckoned with, and a vibrant opposition with a clear mission to take back the mantle of leadership in 2019, then,its will rethink the confirmation of Ali Modu Sheriff as the new Chairman.

Oga your problem is not PDP but the individuals that is or was once associated with it. PDP dies tomorrow and these same set of people either join APC (of which you will rejoice) or form another party. At the end we are just running round in circles.
My point is i don't understand these celebrations.

You are totally not in tune! The fact that Sheriiff is an issue is an ace! Pdp is back!
Sorry, it is a response to the OP.
