Ogun State Governor Ibikunle Amosun has declared that the once thriving political party in the state, the People’s Democratic Party, PDP is completely dead now.
According to the Governor, the ‘real owners’ of the party in the state are already with the APC, describing those claiming to be leaders and elders of the party in the state now as impostors.
Amosun boasted that the PDP will be roundly defeated warning that attempts to rig the polls will only spell doom for the party.
The governor stated this Wednesday night during the final rally of his campaign tour which was held at the Oba Odeleye Square, Ita Iyalode in Abeokuta North local government area of the state.
Amosun during his about five weeks governorship reelection tour, visited all the 236 wards in the state. During his final rally, he declared that his style of campaign, has made him to understand the whole state and what every community needed.
“We took the extension as if nothing has happened. We went ahead to finish our ward to ward campaign. Today is the last day of the wards campaign. We have visited all the 236 wards, for us, when things turn like this, it will turn to blessing in disguise for us. The people that did this, though, I don’t believe them, but give them the benefit of doubt.
“Even with that, they have postponed their defeat. The defeat would be heavier now. In Ogun state, the highest votes is between 55 and 60 per cent. With what they have done now, may be, we would be in the position to be around 70 per cent in our favour, that is why I am not bothered. When they said PVC, I know that in every ten, seven will vote for us. We would have more opportunity to bury the PDP.
“I don’t know of any party, even, the other one they call SDP, they are new starters. They want to act as spoilers but God has destroyed them. We are starting afresh. We are going to all our 20 local government areas. All our opinion moulders, no resting, we want to keep the tempo on. We want to bury them completely. When they are saying PDP, where is PDP in Ogun state, I used to be PDP, we know ourselves. If they are lying to them in Abuja, I am helping them out now, they don’t have any root in Ogun state.
“They can’t have 10 per cent votes in Ogun state. They will fail woefully in Ogun state. They can’t rig in Ogun state. I have said it repeatedly, they can’t rig in Ogun state. They should bury that evil thought that they want to rig here. Ogun people are ready for them,” Amosun warned.
