The Governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose, has described the visit of Senator Ali Modu Sheriff to ex-Nigerian president, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo, as “good riddance to bad rubbish”, adding that the meeting between the duo is a “coming together of PDP enemies.”
Recall that Sheriff met with the former Nigerian president behind closed doors on Saturday.
Governor Fayose, reacting to the visit, recalled that both Obasanjo and Sheriff plotted the destruction of the All Nigerians Peoples Party (ANPP), and are planning to destroy the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) as well.

“Sheriff can as well begin to sleep in Obasanjo’s house, it is good riddance to bad rubbish,” the governor said via his Special Assistant on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka.
“Since Obasanjo is no longer a member of the PDP and he has consistently maintained that he can never return to the PDP, only those in the same league with him can go about visiting him.”
“No genuine lover of the PDP will go to the house of a man who openly destroyed his PDP membership card and worked assiduously to ensure the party’s failure in the 2015 presidential election to seek advice on how the way forward for the PDP.”
“The result of Obasanjo’s imposition of President Mohammadu Buhari on the country is the hunger and sufferings that Nigerians are facing now,” Fayose added.

Recall that Obasanjo had once described the PDP as a party that was divided, factionalised and gasping for breath.
He was quoted saying “If I quit a party when it was alive and seemingly united, how could I go back to a now divided, factionalised party gasping for breath?”
But the PDP was quick to reply Obasanjo, where the Chairman of the PDP Board of Trustees (BoT), Senator Walid Jibrin, told the ex-Nigerian president that only in his imagination is the party dead.
