PDP crisis: If Sheriff wins at Supereme court, We will decamp en masse -Ihedioha

Date:

Loyalists of the Senator Ahmed Makarfi-led faction of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), have said they would decamp en masse to another political platform, if Senator Ali Modu Sheriff wins the legal contest at the Supreme Court.
Former Deputy Speaker, House of Representatives and a strong ally of Makarfi, Chief Emeka Ihedioha, disclosed this, while addressing party stakeholders at Obiri Ehinkirinki Hall, Okpala in Ngor Okpala Local Government Area of Imo State.
Ihedioha said: “Let me tell you in clear terms that if Ali Modu Sheriff wins the legal battle at the Supreme Court, there is a ready political platform waiting for us. We will decamp en masse to the party and abandon PDP for Sheriff”.
While telling party loyalists that “Sheriff was brought into PDP to destroy the party,” Ihedioha also alleged that “Sheriff has a hidden agenda, and we will not allow him to actualize it in PDP.”
According to Ihedioha, “there will be a PDP stakeholders meeting, comprising all former governors, serving and former lawmakers at the national and state levels, in Owerri on Sunday.”
He said that ward chairmen, secretaries, women and youth leaders were expected at the meeting, while equally disclosing that they would chart the way forward for the party.
“It is our desire to return power to the masses, in line with the PDP slogan of ‘power belongs to the people’,” Ihedioha said.
Explaining the reason for his visit to the area, Ihedioha said it was a fence mending mission.
“I am here for reconciliation. I have forgiven those that offended me, and I expect those that I inadvertently offended to forgive and forget,” Ihedioha said.
Speaking on behalf of the party loyalists, PDP Chairman, Ngor Okpala Local Government Area, Mr. Morrison Njoku, commended Ihedioha for the trip, and described him as “a true leader.”
