The Office of former President Goodluck Jonathan media has refuted reports that the ex-President on Monday endorsed Senator Ali Modu Sheriff as the National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

Dr. Jonathan’s media aide, Mr. Ikechukwu Eze, said in a statement, Tueday, that the issue of endorsement never came up in the course of the visit,“at the closed door meeting with Sheriff nor during the former President’s interview with newsmen.” Mr. Eze said that the reported endorsement was mischievous.

According to him, Dr. Jonathan received Sen. Sheriff, “as a former President and foremost leader of the party, welcomed Sheriff and some of his supporters to his house, in line with a mediation role he is playing towards unifying and strengthening the PDP.”

He further stated that Jonathan opened his doors to Sheriff upon his request, just as he had earlier done to the Makarfi-led caretaker committee members, adding that the former President is prepared to broker more talks until the issues in the leadership of the PDP were finally resolved. Mr.Eze said,

“In deed, it may interest you to know that after meeting with Sheriff, the former President also met with Senator Ahmed Makarfi, leader of the PDP Caretaker Committee, and the party’s Board of Trustees chairman, Senator Walid Jubril, later in the evening.

“As a peace-loving leader of the party, the former President’s interest is to help reposition PDP to enable it play a constructive role in the affairs of the nation, in view of the imperative of deepening the nation’s democracy.

“I wish to let those spinning this falsehood know that it just doesn’t add up to fly a contrived banner of endorsement in one breath, and in another, concede that the former President explained his commitment in meeting with different interest groups, towards resolving the differences in the party.

“For the avoidance of doubt, the following are the former President’s exact words during the interview with newsmen, as had accurately been reported by most online and major national newspapers, as well as, broadcast organisations.

“‘We (PDP) are not factionalised. We are one. We are solving our problems. There are bound to be differences in politics. It is the way we resolve these differences that make us human beings and that is what makes us leaders. I have met with Sheriff. And I have met with others. I will still meet with others, so that we will be able to do what is expected of us as a political party.’

“While we appreciate the interest of journalists in the coverage of the activities of the former President, we urge accurate and constructive reporting, as it is a known fact that we cannot truly develop our nation, if journalists continue to twist and fabricate stories with the intent of misinforming the public.”

And why should he endorse that APC Mole?

.

APC/PDP are no longer needed in this country. Jonathan's era was better than this but we still can settle for that. We might have to start looking towards KOWA or APGA

fine face

I new he never endorsed sheriff because he also met with the caretaker committee chairman for the purpose of reconciliation but the media refused to report that one.

I was just laughing hard in the other thread when APC faithfuls were busy masturbating and having orgasm and they swiftly moved that lie to front page.

One begins to wonder why APC followers are so interested for sheriff to be PDP Chairman

i knew the previous report was cooked up

I just don't like what is happening in Nigeria as a continent. Kikikikiki

That's why he lost.

From Peter Obi to Willy Obiano, APGA as a Party have been prooving beyond reasonable doubt that they know what leadership and governance entails, Okorocha was doing well until he joined the evil broom gang


Nigeria need an APGA president come 2019


A vote for APGA is a vote for good governance, security of life & properties,rapid industrial , infractural & sustainable development.
