Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), yesterday, said it had become evident that its former acting National Chairman, Senator Ali Modu Sheriff, is on a deliberate mission to kill and destroy the party and all its gains in nurturing and sustaining democracy in the country.

PDP said intelligence available to it shows that Senator Sheriff in league with some agents of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has continued to enjoy the support of non-PDP members to carry out their nefarious acts.

In a statement signed by the interim spokesman, Prince Dayo Adeyeye, the party said members of the party across the country, were already aware of the evil designs of the former Borno State governor and have chosen to ignore him.

According to PDP, Sheriff and his group have been shopping and approaching law courts with dubious information for interlocutory orders to keep them afloat until it frustrates its gubernatorial elections in Edo and Ondo States as designed by their sponsors.

“Legitimacy in politics is not given through a procured interlocutory injunction but through the mandate of the people and Sheriff and his cohorts will soon realize this.

“We are aware that Sheriff sponsors have urged him to sustain his illicit role for a while and create a semblance of a faction in the party to give way for some elected PDP members to take the advantage to decamp but unknown to them members of our great party are aware of their game and have vowed to resist them.

The party therefore urged the judiciary to be wary of dubious information and always block anything that would diminish their enviable role as the pillar in the sustenance of democracy in the country.

The Party assured its members that the caretaker committee under Senator Ahmed Markefi remains committed to discharging the assignment given to them by members and have refused to be distracted even as it warned members to beware of Greek gifts being offered by agents whose mission is nothing but to kill the great party.
