I’m Reaching Out To Those Who Defected To APC – PDP Chairman, Sheriff

The Peoples Democratic Party's National Chairman, Sen. Ali
Modu Sheriff, yesterday revealed that he has started
reaching out to those who defected from the party to the
ruling All Progressives Congress, APC.
The former governor of Borno State, however, refused to say
if he had also met with the President of the Senate, Sen.
Bukola Saraki on whether the latter would return to the PDP
or not.
Speaking through his Special Assistant on Media and
Publicity, Inuwa Bwala in Abuja, Sheriff said the alleged
panic in the camp of the ruling party was responsible for the
dispute that greeted his appointment.
According to Sheriff, the leadership of the ruling party is
aware of his capability to unite the members of the PDP and
also bring back those who defected to the APC, hence the
controversy.
"We have started reaching out to those who left the PDP
and we are discussing already.
"We are getting positive results from them, but we won't go
to the pages of newspapers to announce their names.
"The APC and its leadership are aware that Sheriff has the
ability to unite the members of the PDP and also bring back
those who have left the party.
"This was why we had the initial controversy on the
appointment. But now, we have thrown that behind us as we
have resumed work fully," Bwala said
