Sheriff said this in Ado Ekiti on Thursday at the PDP secretariat being part of his visit to the state to consolidate his hold on the party.
Let me thank Governor Fayose for his...
efforts to keep our party on ground in Ekiti. It is God that used to make a leader and that was why God commanded in the Holy bible and Qur’an that He should be allowed to choose a leader for the people.
“With what I witnessed yesterday, it was obvious that God Chose Fayose for Ekiti people , because of his popularity among them. He was taken to the prison and eight years after, he came back. People won’t be happy with the governor if he had not been fair to them”.
“I never wanted or thought of being chairman , but I was sleeping in my house when governor Fayose called me from Port Harcourt and said I was going to be the new National Chairman. This to me, was a miracle.
Sheriff added that “In keeping PDP together, I am not going to insult anybody , we will only do this by allowing the people to choose their leaders through credible elections”, he said.
The ex-Borno governor promised to reignite the fortunes of the party back to what it used to be in 1999, when it was a darling party among Nigerian.
