Sheriff Promised To Help PDP To Win Borno
Clement Ejiofor,
Ex-Governor of Borno State, Ali Modu Sheriff, has pledged to help the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) win the state in the 2015 general elections. Sheriff made the promise at his formal welcome to the PDP on Tuesday at the party’s national secretariat in Abuja.
He said his coming to PDP was to pay back the Borno state people and help to change the mistakes made in the past.
The former governor had always been in the opposition until now, but has collapsed with his previous leader and the current governor of his state Kashim Shettima, whom he helped to office in 2011.

“We don’t give automatic waiver like other parties. But one thing I can assure you is that anybody that will contest for any position should proceed to buy forms and apply.
“Every application is on individual basis, just write a letter and we will process it,” Mu’azu said.
It should be said Ali Modu Sheriff held a closed-door meetings with President Goodluck Jonathan this Monday.
