National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Ali Modu Sheriff, stated that the fight for who occupies Aso Rock in Abuja in 2019 has already commenced.
Sheriff stated this on Sunday while addressing newsmen in Jalingo, Taraba State.
He also used the occasion to react to comments made last week by his media aide, Inuwa Bwala, who called Jerry Gana and his ‘concerned stakeholders’ as “self-styled” elders of the PDP.
Sheriff said as a “well cultured and astute politician, I would never make any comment that would ridicule the party.”
The opposition party chairman said he respects elders and would never have authorised any of his aides to react to issues raised by the aggrieved elders.
Sheriff said “under our leadership and the support and encouragement of stakeholders and supporters, PDP will definitely bounce back in 2019.”
