“Sen. Ali Modu Sheriff & his APC collaborators cannot stop the will of the people. Nigerians can now confirm that Sen. Ali Modu Sheriff is a mole in PDP to destroy the only strong opposition in the Country.
“All invited members of the Party for the scheduled Stakeholders Meeting are hereby directed to proceed to the Ekiti State Government Lodge on T. Y. Danjuma Street, Asokoro, Abuja by same time, 2:00pm.”
