PDP, in a statement by its spokesman, Prince Dayo Adeyeye said that the comment credited to Sheriff where he said that Makarfi was not sincere towards the reconciliation was a tissue of lies.
The party said: "As much as we don't intend to banter words with this former members of the PDP, we however, feel constrained to put in the public domain once again, facts as it relates to the intents of these agents of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) masquerading as PDP members.
"We wish to state clearly that Ali Modu-Sheriff and his ilk are known enemies of our party, planted to destabilize the vibrant party that provided good leadership for the country for 16 years.
"We can say without fear of contradiction, and as well, challenge Nigerians to point out where, even, for once, those parading themselves as PDP members, have dare to issue a statement condemning any of the several gaffes of the APC government.
"We say clearly that not for once has Modu-Sheriff and his team of confused travellers said a word against the mis-governace of the APC. We are not surprised because we know it's suicidal for a servant to criticise the master."
The party asked its teeming members and other stakeholders in the Nigerian project to reflect over the so called campaign done by the Modu-Sheriff team in Akure on Monday.
"At the charade called campaign flag-off, not a word of condemnation was uttered by the "PDP members" against the APC government, but rather, abusive words were hurled at Governor Olusegun Mimiko, the Chairman of PDP Governors Forum, whereas, the contestant the so called PDP members are to wrestle for people's vote with, is an APC candidate. What an irony..!
"We state unequivocally that we remain strong to the ideals of the founding fathers of our noble party and will not submit the independence of the party to those who are struggling to trade away the soul of the party to their masters.
"PDP is not going underground, it shall not die and we will surely come out stronger after nature might have taken care of these viruses who want to kill the party," it said.
