The leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Thursday said that Senator Ali Modu-Sheriff is substantive and not acting National Chairman of the PDP as being erroneously reported by a section of the media.
Mr. Olisa Metuh, the PDP National Publicity Secretary in a statement said “His appointment by the National Executive Committee (NEC) of our great party in its 68th meeting last Tuesday, to replace Dr. Ahmadu Adamu Mu’azu, who resigned as National Chairman, is in line with section 47(6) of the PDP Constitution, which empowers NEC to fill a vacant position with a person from the zone where the officer originated from.
“The PDP therefore urges the media and members of the public to note this accordingly.”
