– Doyin Okupe reacted to the announcement of Senator Ali Modu
Sheriff as the new PDP chairman

– According to Olupe, Sheriff is a wrong candidate who is coming in
at a wrong time

– He listed signs and symptoms of “the terminal disease” that is
killing the PDP


According to Doyin Okupe, Sheriff is a very adroit and astute
politician.

Mixed reactions continue to trail the emergence of Senator Ali Modu
Sheriff as the national chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party
(PDP).

On Thursday, February 18, Doyin Okupe, a former senior special
assistant on public affairs to the ex-president Goodluck Jonathan,
took to his Facebook to express his regret at Sheriff’s choice.

Describing the ex-governor of Borno state as a very adroit and astute
politician, Okupe noted that Sheriff was a wrong candidate who was
coming in at a wrong time.


“The capability of our party, the PDP and its leadership to make grave
errors of judgement is legendary. What is intriguing is that even out of
power that tendency seems unabating.

“Alhadji Ali Sheriff is a longstanding political associate of mine and a
very adroit and astute politician of perhaps a sublime class.
“But for the post of the national chairman of the PDP, he is a wrong
candidate and also coming in at a wrong time.

Recalling that some PDP members vowed not to leave the party,
Okupe expressed his assurance that they would not leave it.


“Better still in spite of the present situation of things we will continue
to engage all who care to listen and deepen consultation across the
country seeking help from everyone ready to help to revive this
severely challenged sickened giant.


“But if it is the divine will of God that our present masters must kill
PDP, then by the Grace of God we shall yet tarry at the graveside to
bid it farewell,” he added.

Meanwhile, Olufemi Fani-Kayode, the former aviation minister, has
recently stated that the opposition party needs serious prayers.
The party’s presidential spokesman during the 2015 election was
apparently reacting to the announcement of former Borno state
governor as the new PDP chairman.

Two of the most vicious attackers of APC have come out to voice their disapproval over that decision yet some PDP supporters out here want us to believe it is the best thing to have ever happened to the party.

We dey laugh oo.

They feel he can deliver them.

Okugbe should we still call you a bastard? well no one ever said bastards cannot speak the truth!

Sheriff or no sheriff....APC ROCKS!!!!!!

Hmmm naija. Luv dis country, cheer

Doyin Okupe is right. I suggested Dangote until I learned he is not interested. I advised that the Party be returned to the Patronage of IBB,AA,

It's a stubborn fly that follows the corpse to hell. AMS is not the best.

Doyin is a GEJ supporter and they don't want Sherrif for reasons best known to them. Am not surprised. If they like, they should bring Obama as their disastrous party's chairman, they will still fail. Enemies of progress.

He may counter APC in Chad, Niger and even Cameroon, the security of Nigeria should no longer be taken for granted.

Thank God you know this while some people are praising him. BTW I am Waiting for the twitter senator to react, he never reacted to such matters.

Okupe should STFU....

“But if it is the divine will of God that our present masters must kill

Lmaooooo
PDP is dead waiting for the undertaker to take the coffin to the graveside.

TonyeBarcanista:
Okupe should STFU....

Why? you've stated your jaundiced opinion, why trying to silence people that are far more relevant than you.

Flexherbal:
They feel he can deliver them.

Maybe through Ecomong or Bkok haram?

TonyeBarcanista:
Okupe should STFU....

I believe everyone has a right to his opinion, you wrote a terrible mess yesterday that won't help sherrifs case, I can't remember okupe attacking you.

TonyeBarcanista:
Okupe should STFU....

Like he doesn't have an opinion... why are you the only one that don't find sas appointment wrong at this point?? You just confused man, you don't know more than all

APC is confused......PDP is more confused.

LRNZH:


Isn't there something you are missing? Only you and Secondus see the wisdom in appointing Sheriff.

FFK, Okupe, GEJ party loyalists, most PDP loving Nigerians see the tomfoolery in the choice of Sheriff.

My advice- recant your ineffectual write-up supporting Sheriff.

Doyin and GEJ loyalists want Gulak. I'm not against Gulak(if you check) but I don't see this contest as a must win. SAS has already emerged, it's either Doyin and co accept the fact or they should go to hell!

PDP doesn't belong to ex-GEJ's aides alone.

It doesn't matter who is picked as the chairman, as long as it ends with an Okonji Iweala presidential ticket.

LRNZH:


Of course nobody in the majority wants SAS. SAS is way richer than Gulak hence he is the party chairman today. PDP didn't care about the BH sponsor baggage he carries with him. It is a shame if you ask me.

Muazu or Ribadu are much more reputable than SAS. I have told you before, SAS is hated by the masses in Borno state because of his (past and present?) BH affiliations.

As APC loyalist, you should be happy if you believe that Sheriff candidacy is off-key. Abi ?

As for Ribadu, I'd have love him to but he wasn't interested. Perhaps, his sight is on the Presidential ticket.

For Muazu, hahaahahaha
