‘We must put the past behind us and support Makarfi’ – Fayose

The Ekiti state Governor, Ayodele Fayose, on Monday, praised the recent ruling of a Federal High Court which affirmed the removal of Ali Modu Sheriff as the National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

Fayose made his position known in a statement signed by his Special Assistant on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka.

The governor noted that the court’s ruling has resolved the leadership crisis currently rocking the party. He called on members of the PDP to support the Ahmed Markafi-led national caretaker committee.

Fayose said, “I am happy that the court has finally put to rest all issues concerning the leadership of the PDP because the Federal High Court, Port-Harcourt judgment, which affirmed the Port-Harcourt National Convention that dissolved the Senator Ali Modu Sheriff-led National Working Committee and constituted the Senator Ahmed Markafi led National Caretaker Committee is a declarative judgment and not an interim order or interlocutory injunction.”

“The judgment goes to the root of the crisis and since the Independent National Electoral Commission and the security agencies themselves were categorical in their position that today’s judgment will form the basis of their position on the PDP leadership issue, it should be clear to all that it is only the National Caretaker Committee that can be related with by anyone.”

“However, since it is a family affair where there should be no victor and no loser, all genuine lover of the PDP must put the past behind them and support the National Caretaker Committee so as to return the party’s lost glories.”
