A former Deputy National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Chief Olabode Ibiyinka George, has told those seeking political solution to the phase-off between the factional leaders of the party to stop wasting their time.
He said Ali-Modu Sheriff and Caretaker chairman, Senator Ahmed Makarfi should be allowed to fight to finish in the court.
Recall that former President, Goodluck Jonathan is among those pushing for political solution in the party.
George told Guardian, “When people talk about political solution, nobody is saying ‘don’t find a political solution’ but you have hit at the heart of the party’s constitution, and it must be resolved for the future.
“That is where we are but I have no doubt that whatever the outcome of the Supreme Court, that is the final arbiter.
“If it favors us, fine; if it does not favour us, fine, but we would have been there to clear this issue that could be a recurring decimal once and for all.
“My clear submission is that the ultimate resolution of the PDP crisis resides in the Supreme Court which has proven time and time again as an organ of responsible, intelligent, integrity conscious and morally upright men and women whose purpose and vision is to protect the dignity of the judiciary.
“There can’t be any half measures anymore. We need a clear, firm and binding total solution. This can only be obtained at the highest court in the land. Nothing else will do.”
