Ali Modu Sheriff, has accused Senator Ahmed Makarfi of frustrating all attempts at reconciling members of the party.

He said: “In the cause of the last six months, we have worked assiduously to reposition our great party, the PDP, through harnessing the enormous potentials of the party at the grassroots. Your visit today is eident of the mass followership our party enjoys. “Permit me, therefore, to state that I have in all sincerity tried to resolve this party crisis. I have offered that both the caretaker committee and the NWC be dissolved to give way for a new independent leadership.

“But the caretaker committee has refused to agree to anything except recognize them and let the caretaker committee run the party till 2018. “We have, therefore, resigned our fate to the decision of their lordships of the Court of Appeal and Supreme Court. However, we are ready to return to the negotiation table today if Sen. Makarfi sees reason to do so.”
