Makarfi says embattled chairman created Boko Haram

The chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) caretaker committee, Ahmed Makarfi has accused the embattled party chairman, Ali Modu Sheriff of creating Boko Haram.

Makarfi said Sheriff is known everywhere as a violent person, that is why the police withdrew his orderlies.

This is coming after Sheriff accused the caretaker committee chairman of hiring Fulani herdsmen to stop him from entering the PDP secretariat.

Makarfi said  “Sheriff is the one known to have created Boko Haram, therefore, he is continuing in similar direction.

“I’m never known to be associated with violence. He made same malicious allegation before the former IGP and DG SSS which was disregarded as baseless. On the contrary, I was there and then given official additional security.”

Adding that “The police had withdrawn all his security both in Maiduguri and Abuja because of his actions. He had to beg in front of all and after agreeing to take the path of peaceful resolution before they agreed to return some to him.

“As I speak to you he reneged on that peaceful resolution and resorted to filing more cases before courts and has refused appointing his four-member delegation.

“So you media should know who thrives in violence. If you have record of that press statement I will sue him.”

The former Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) chairman, Ali Modu Sheriff also said he is ashamed at the way Governor Ayo Fayose is conducting himself in the country.
