Embattled Chairman of PDP, Ali Modu Sheriff, says he will
not be resigning from his position as the party's Chairman despite
the public outcry by some members since his appointment. Sheriff
stated this at the PDP secretariat in Abuja shortly after he
officially took over the party leadership.Reacting to allegations
that he is a sponsor of the Insurgency group, Boko Haram,
Sheriff said“I won’t resigned because the leadership of the party,
in their wisdom, chose me to lead the PDP for the purpose
of rebuilding and repositioning the party at this critical period,
”he said.“Boko Haram killed my own brother. They killed members of
my family, so why should I sponsor people to kill my own
brother, my own family. I am not a fanatic. I love to enjoy
my life. Boko Haram are criminals who live in the bush
and eat once a day. I believe their sponsors will be caught
at the end of the day. I have nothing to do with Boko Haram,”
he said. He singled out a former Aviation Minister,
Chief Femi Fani-Kayode, among the people linking him with
the terror sect, saying “this time around, people like
Fani-Kayode will not go scot free.”
