The Caretaker Committee Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Sen Ahmed Makarfi, has called for an emergency meeting of party stakeholders over the court ruling that affirmed Ali Modu Sheriff as National Chairman of the party.
Recall that an Appeal Court sitting in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, had on Friday ruled in favour of the former Borno State governor.
But the Makarfi’s faction of the party rejected the ruling, saying it was heading to the Supreme Court to contest the judgement.
According to a notice signed by the faction’s Publicity Secretary, Dayo Adeyeye, the meeting will hold at the International Conference Centre, ICC, Abuja 2pm on Monday.
Adeyeye said the decision of the Appeal Court which gave victory to Sheriff will be discussed.
The notice of the meeting posted on the party’s twitter handle @OfficialPDPNIG mentioned that those invited to the meeting are “members of the National Executive Committee (NEC), members of the Board of Trustees (BoT), National Assembly members, former governors of PDP, former ministers under the platform of the PDP, former National Assembly members and party elders.”
Adeyeye urged all invited guests to attend “unfailingly.”
