The ousted chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Senator Ali Modu Sheriff, has been refused entrance into the National Secretariat of the party in Abuja by security officials.

Armed policemen were at the entrance of the secretariat on Monday, denying the former leader of the opposition party entrance.

Mr Sheriff led his group to Wadata Plaza National Secretariat of the PDP but was prevented from going in by the armed officials.

He told reporters outside the party’s headquarters, that he remained the chairman of the party.

The former Senator added that the court did not recognise the constitution of a caretaker committee.

His prevention from entering the party’s secretariat is coming weeks after he was removed as the chairman of the party.

Senator Sheriff was removed at a convention held in Port Harcourt in southern Nigeria on May 21, with a caretaker committee set up to co-ordinate the affairs of the party.

The Caretaker Committee headed by Senator Ahmed Makarfi, a former Governor of Kaduna State, was mandated to elect a new National Working Committee for the party within three months.

After his removal, the Governor of Ekiti State, Mr Ayodele Fayose, said that the National Working Committee (NWC) of the PDP, which Senator Sheriff led, was dissolved to save the party.

The opposition party is struggling to regain popularity after it lost power to the All Progressives Congress in the 2015 presidential election.
