“I enjoin party faithful to remain steadfast as we will surely emerge stronger from the present challenges. Those dreaming about the death of the opposition in Nigeria will have to sleep much longer, and still wake up to meet us much stronger because a vibrant opposition is the beauty of democracy”.
Reactions have been trailing the Appeal Court ruling of Friday, February 17 that declared Ali Modu Sheriff the rightful chairman of the opposition party.
One of those that have reacted is top PDP stalwart and former aviation minister Femi Fani-Kayode.
Fani-Kayode said the decision of the Court of Appeal to recognise Senator Ali Modu Sheriff as the national chairman of the PDP is a victory for President Buhari.
