The statement read, “The Forum hereby warns all warring factions to desist from making any further defamatory statement against the person of Senator Ali Modu Sheriff in particular and the party in general.
“We believe in the person of the party chairman because of his doggedness, leadership quality, ability to command a wider cloud of the political class across the nooks and crannies of Nigeria.
“His wealth of experience and political exposure; his overwhelming popularity and general acceptability.
“We therefor urge our amiable national chairman to continue extending his hands of fellowship to all aggrieved members because he is father of all in the party.
