Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Chairman, Ali Modu Sheriff to a new bride who had to be dumped because she was found to be HIV positive.
Fayose made the analogy in explaining why he withdrew his support for Sheriff despite initially backing the latter’s emergence as PDP Chairman.
“Without doubt, I did not beg him but I supported his coming. And when you act within ambits of time the information you have at a given time, I am not someone that will say I did not support Sheriff,” he said on Thursday, June 16, 2016 after a meeting of PDP leaders in Abuja.
“But when you want to marry a woman, on the wedding day they tell you that the woman has HIV, will you still remain in the marriage? I am out of it,” he added.
Sheriff was removed from the chairmanship position during the PDP’s National Convention on May 21, 2016.
Fayose was one of the few PDP members who supported Sheriff’s emergence despite claims that the latter had links to Boko Haram.
“His [Sheriff’s] emergence at this time is the best thing in the present circumstance and those aggrieved should sheath their sword and deploy their time and resources into fighting the All Progressives Congress (APC) instead of their own party," the governor said on February 22, via a statement released by his Special Assistant on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka.
“I therefore call on all my admirers and believers in my dogged fight for the revival of our party to support our new chairman, whom I believe has the required capacity to reposition the party,” the governor added.
Sheriff later thanked Fayose for his support and revealed that it was the governor who made him chairman of the PDP.
“I never planned to be the PDP Chairman but God used people like Fayose and other Nigerians to make me the chairman (of the party),” Sheriff said on March 17.
“I was sleeping in my room when Fayose called me from Port Harcourt and said I was going to be the new National Chairman. For me, it was a miracle,” he added.
After Sheriff’s removal from office, Fayose explained that he was forced to withdraw his support because the situation was tearing the PDP apart.
Soro soro of Nigeria
ReplyDeleteTalkative of naija
He talks more with his mouth than his sense
But the man FAYOSE played a fair game if u asked me. Not many would own up to their blunder because of what people will say. He admitted to making a wrong choice earlier, so Sheriff should stop constituting a nuisance and accept his fate.
DeleteI saw this man on TV struggling to enter into the PDP HQ. Saying that he must be chairman till 2018. When People don't want u again, the honorable thing is to leave na. He's making this matter a do or die affair. Embarrassing himself all over the place.
Lolzzzzx
ReplyDeleteI don't blame Fayose. I will also withdraw from the marriage if I found out that the woman is HIV on the wedding day. She should go and marry the man dat gave it to her.
At this age and time, the only thing some people can link to HIV is sex. Stone age man, don't even bother to leave her because am sure you would have gbensh her. Try do other things than just blog.
DeleteThere are men and women who marry HIV positive partners and still remain HIV negative even though they have sex without condom. Google it and educate itself. U really need it.
DeleteOrinma!!...
ReplyDeleteI always knew making Sherriff Chairman was a big mustake.
DeleteGlad Fayose is man enough to admit that
Time to refocus and make PDP a great party again and a formidable opposition party in the interest of Nigeria's democracy
This guy just openly stigmatised HIV patients
ReplyDeleteSeriously, which is not nice.
