My Opinion On Senator Ali Modu Sheriff - Adelaja Adeoye

First of all,  Senator Sheriff is a bonafide member of our great party PDP and infact he has every right like other party members to visit the party's National Headquarters in Abuja and other branches across Nigeria.

Denying him access is an infringement on his fundamental human right as a party member until he renounced his membership.

Senator Ali Modu Sheriff is a dogged fighter,  a Democrat who in my own opinion should know when to cut the line to avoid bad fall.

The crises rocking the party is needless and should not have snowballed into what we are seeing today if all leaders follows the party's constitution judiciously.

Like i said earlier,  no one should ordinarily stop Senator Sheriff from entering the Secretariat.

However, the ways and manners Senator Sheriff is conducting himself in and around the party Secretariat is unlawful and criminal which the party can charge or call for his arrest if he continues with public disturbance of peace.

Senator Sheriff does more damage to his reputation with his recent actions by trying to foist himself on a well structured and biggest party in Africa as a chairman.  

On the purported claim that he is hanging on court order from Lagos barring the party from holding convention. Nothing of such ever existed.

SAS should not act and conduct himself like an illiterate, he needs to go back and read what our party constitution says about this matter.

Clearly,  Sheriff is fighting a lost battle even before a take off. The highest decision making organ of the party which is National convention never ratified Sheriff,  he was never elected in the first place,  he was merely standing to fill a void pending substantive election as a result of Muazu's resignation.

All those illiterates like Sheriff acting like Zombie should think clearly and critically look at the issues on ground before coming to social media to humiliate themselves with illogical defense for SAS.  

Finally, i remember i did posted on Twitter when Sheriff was appointed as the then acting Chairman, i opposed his emergence,  my arguments was that how can the biggest party in Africa appoint a man with Boko Haram alleged link and stigma as chairman, alot of my fellow PDP youths attacked me and later i was just looking.

PDP is a brand that have diminished in its face value after it lost election,  you cannot plan to up your brand outlook by appointing another bad brand to make it happen.

The argument then was that SAS has money to run the party and Doyin Okupe asked,  how was PDP surviving before Sheriff came...... Story for another day.

It is sad that when Sheriff was appointed,  alot of insinuations propped up like,  he is a mole in the party sent by Buhari his inlaw,  his molly antecedents were analysed in the media but some ignoramus and selfish leaders who wanted to use him in the party never listened until he showed himself really as a big MOLE they back off.

No doubt,  if you put 1+1=2 one will wonder why all the shout of oleeee,  Thief.... barawo on Buruji Kashamu suddenly stopped.

Some leaders don't care what happens to the collective gains and overall interest of all once there own interest is satisfied.

We watched with keen interest how Kashamu began to praise Bola Tinubu,  called him his mentor,  leader and all sort of praisy names.

Now,  same Kashamu peered with Sheriff in this mission of #OperationKillPDP.

Do i need to write further before you get the entire gist and what is happening in PDP?  

News just filtered in today that Senator Sheriff has been invited by the EFCC for questioning over a fraudulent case of N450 Million. We hope its not true anyway.

Also on the claim by Senator Ali Modu Sheriff that his tenure as PDP National Chairman will end in 2018, I have just two questions to ask :

1. Why did he (Sheriff) obtain Nomination Form and was in Port-Harcourt to contest the Chairmanship position when he knew his tenure will end in 2018?

2. Why did he appear before the screening committee at the PDP State Secretariat in Port-Harcourt?
