presidential ticket.
heriff was sacked by the party following his cancellation of the party’s national convention which held in Port Harcourt on Saturday, May 21.

He said that if Sheriff continued to lead PDP, the crisis in the party would continue.
He said that the party’s National Executive Committee (NEC) during its 71st meeting had agreed that Sheriff’s tenure had expired as he was meant to complete the tenure of Alhaji Adamu Mu’azu, which ended in March.
“The convention in Port Harcourt had, seeing the danger ahead, unanimously resolved that we should give way for peace to reign, and the party is more supreme than any individual in the NWC.
“So in order to bring peace, Jerry Gana, Mantu, Turaki, Zainab Maina and many others are insisting that Ali Modu Sheriff should go.”
Meanwhile, the PDP revealed that it had to sack Senator Modu Sheriff as chairman because his leadership style was affecting the party negatively.
Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers said he supported Sheriff when he was first made chairman but he had to go for the party to be stable.
