Just In: Sheriff, Makarfi Locked Out Of PDP BoT Meeting

The lingering leadership crisis in the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has taken another dimension as embattled party former Chairman, Ali Modu Sheriff as well as the chairman of the Caretaker committee of the party, Senator Ahmed Makarfi were sent out of the ongoing party’s Board of Trustees meeting in Abuja.
Senator Sheriff walked into the Transcorp Hilton venue of the meeting at about 11:10 am and was followed five minutes later by Senator Makarfi. The duo sat at the high table alongside the chairman of the Board, Senator Jibril Wali and the secretary, Chief Ojo Maduekwe.
Few minutes later, the chairman of the board announced that the board had a very important decision to take before the commencement of the meeting.
At this point, he asked journalists covering the opening ceremony to leave the hall and less than five minutes later, Senators Sheriff and Makarfi walked out of the meeting hall.
