hehehehe.....Ousted National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Senator
Ali Modu Sheriff, has vowed to submit the name of Matthew Idurioyekemwen
to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), as the
gubernatorial candidate of the party in Edo State.
Sheriff’s parallel congress produced Idurioyekemwen as the flag bearer of the party.
Idurioyekemwen had lost to Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu at the primaries conducted by the PDP National Caretaker Committee.
Speaking on Tuesday when he presented certificate of return to
Iduoriyekwemwen in Abuja, Sheriff said he was backed by Justice Okon
Abang of Federal High Court in Abuja, which ordered the electoral body
to accept nomination for the September 10 election from his faction of
the PDP.
His words: “It is clear from Abuja High Court that INEC is obliged to accept the candidate we are to present.
“You know ideally, most of our officials have travelled for Sallah.
We need to do this because, the first working day, we are going to
submit our candidate’s form to INEC.
“I have to stay behind to do some of the things so as to ensure that
the forms are submitted after the Sallah break,” Sheriff stated.
