PDP Chairmanship : Sheriff Was Ousted Because Of Links With Boko Haram - Dokpesi




Former DAAR Communications Plc Chairman , Raymond Dokpesi , has revealed why embattled factional Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party , PDP , Sen . Ali Modu Sheriff , was ousted as National leader of the party .

Recall that Sheriff was sacked during the party’s National Convention in Port Harcourt , Rivers State on May 21 , 2016 , after which a National Caretaker Committee under the leadership of Sen. Ahmed Makarfi was inaugurated .


Despite his removal, the former Borno State governor has continued to insist that he remains the leader of the opposition party, stressing that he will only vacate his office if allowed to select his successor and to organise a new National Convention for the party .

But speaking in Asaba , Delta State on Monday , Dokpesi who is also vying for the role of National Chairmanship of the party, explained that Sheriff ’s link to Boko Haram was a major reason .

According to the former DAAR Communications Chairman , the former Borno State governor had some baggage associated with the dreaded insurgents group , Boko Haram .

“ Sheriff has a little bit of baggage because from where he came from , he is not supported. Boko Haram is a major reason our son , Goodluck Jonathan lost the last presidential election .

“ So there was no need for us to bring somebody associated with Boko Haram to represent us if we wish to reclaim the presidency in 2019 ,” Dokpesi Saud.

The Clumsy Wife

When you were asked about your swollen right eye, you said you sleepwalked and hit your face against the wall. We all said sorry and asked you to get well soon. A few days after, it was your chin that was shifted to the side. In response, you blamed it again in your clumsiness and that you feel off the bed. You are a grown woman in her late 30's. This time, we had questions that we couldn't dare to ask you. Weeks later, you were limping and you assured us that it was your clumsiness that made you fall down the stairs. At this point, we faced our business and wished you all the best. 2 months later, you're lying in a golden casket, 6 feet under the ground.  The autopsy read that you died from a deep gash on your forehead, probably a hit from the bloody plank of wood that was found beside your corpse. At this point, you want to talk. You wanted to say it all. But it's too late. Your husband claimed you hit your head on the plank, and we all believed him because you told u

She Must Be Obeyed Movie Review

  I don't understand Funke Akindele's obsession with the music industry Sha. She is always trying to project the industry one way or the other - we have Industreet already. On this new one Sha, I don't know how to feel about it.  This storyline is great. The life of a Celebrity musician behind the camera and in front of the camera. But the directing get as e be. The movie just dey anyhow. But the acting from some cast made up for the 'anyhowness'. Bishop (Okon) was amazing. Lateef was great. Gayness doesn't fit Akah. He shouldn't try it again. Vee tried small. I don't understand what Ali Nuhu was acting. Lizzy Jay sef dey vex person. The entire Rachael Okonkwo family weren't it at all. Mama Gee no try at all. Don't give her a drunk role again. Nancy Isime was Nancy Isime, Just there. Shaffy Bello was great as always. In all, I will give it a 4/10.

Big Love Movie Review

  While this movie tried not to be your regular Nollywood Romantic movie, I still got annoyed at some small small mistakes that I saw. Inkblot is too big for some mistakes that were present in this movie. Overall, Big Love is nice. It's a movie that would take you through a rollercoaster of emotions. The beginning was quite not it.  Most of the dialogues got me rolling my eyes, like warahell. Casting was great. Storyline was amazing Directing wasn't coordinated. There were scenes that looked rushed and scattered. PS - VJ Adams should just leave Bimbo for Timini. Their chemistry is mind-blowing. Timini had grown as an actor. And it's great to see. Aunty Shaffy is great, as always. Overall, I'd give it an 8/10.
