Sheriff Vs Makarfi: Appeal Court to decide PDP’s authentic National Chairman today

The Court of Appeal sitting in Port Harcourt, Rivers State will today decide who is legitimately the National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.

The ruling may likely bring to an end the leadership tussle that have ravaged the former ruling party for a while now.

PDP has been enmeshed in leadership crisis following the inauguration of the Sen Ahmed Makarfi-led National Caretaker Committee in May 2016.

The party had inaugurated the committee following the alleged expiration of the tenure of its embattled factional National Chairman, Sen Ali Modu Sheriff.

Despite the existence of the Makarfi-led Committee, Sheriff has continued to maintain that he remained the authentic leader of the party.

However, Makarfi’s claim to the party’s leadership stool was strengthened by a favourable judgment obtained at the Federal High Court, Port-Harcourt in which Justice Mohammed Liman ordered that he be duly recognised.

Justice Liman also ordered Sheriff to stop parading himself as the National Chairman of the party.

The PDP which took to its twitter handle @OfficialPDPNIG announced that its leaders were already at the court ahead of the ruling.

PDP wrote, “Today is Judgment day at the Appeal Court, Port Harcourt Division. We shall update you our esteem supporters on proceedings and developments

“The Zonal Vice Chairmen and state Chairmen of the party are all here in the court.

“We just got a report that the Court will be sitting by 11:00am instead of 9:00am earlier scheduled.”

PDP war zone...keep off

Lizard and Pig.

Appeal court in PORT HARCOURT.

Ndi ala

They better unite now before it is too late.

Wike has lost his home form. Thats an away win for sheriff.

How many times will the court have to decide so this?

I pray they unite so they can be a better opposition.

The Court As Rule In Favour Of Ali-Modu Sheriff

Wait

Guess who won the case?

They are all Group of selfish Adamus who do not have the Nation or their Party at heart. They are disgrace to the youths of this nation and their party.
The PDP I knew has gone sour, you can ask OBJ

Modu must win na. That's justice.

I will luv sherrif to win, he will be more arrogant for a better opposition

God will shame Ali Modi Sheriff and his co-supporters in Aso Rock.

I dont see this case ending up at the Appeal Court. Greed and lust for power is just the bane of the whole problem and until it is rooted out, even the Supreme Court judgment wont unite the party.

court affirms sherrif as authentic chairman.

The lost of presidential election in 2015 is not the worst thing that has happened to PDP,it's sheriff
