Fear-stricken governors elected on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) are beginning to worm back to Senator Ali Modu Sheriff after a Federal High Court on Thursday declared him the authentic chairman of the party. Hours after the court’s ruling, Governor Olusegun Mimiko of Ondo State held a secret meeting with Sheriff in Abuja, although some other PDP governors remain opposed to Sheriff leading the party.
Some members of the Board of Trustees (BOT) of the PDP have also made a U- turn to woo Sheriff who is said to be disposed to convening a stakeholders meeting later this week.
It was gathered that Governor Mimiko met with Sheriff on Thursday night in Abuja as part of the effort to “move the party forward.”
