.The Peoples Democratic Party has said that the choice of Prof. Yemi Osinbajo ( SAN) as the running mate of Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.) cannot save the All Progressives Congress from defeat in the six states in the South West.

The Chairman of the PDP in Osun State, Alhaji Gani Olaoluwa, said this while speaking with journalists in Osogbo on Thursday.

Olaoluwa said that Osinbajo did not have the capability to sway voters in the South West to vote the APC presidential candidate.

Olaoluwa, who predicted victory for President Goodluck Jonathan in the next general election said that the nation needed a focused leader like Jonathan to continue to run the affairs of the nation.

He said, “Osinbajo is not known in the South West. He has no impact in the region.We do not know him and our people cannot support a man they do not know. Prof. Osinbajo cannot lay claim to any contribution he has rendered to the South West region as a person.

“Osinbajo cannot make the people of the South West to vote for the APC candidate. The APC candidate cannot get the support of the people of the South West, despite the fact that his running mate hails from the region. Both Buhari and Osinbajo have nothing to offer for the people of the South West.

“We need people like Jonathan to continue leading us in Nigeria. This is a man who has done greatly in all sectors of the economy. He has done greatly in the South West and we can see all that he has done for us. This is a man we need for Nigeria to move forward.”

He added that the PDP had resolved all the internal wrangling, saying the ruling party was going into the poll united.

As far as NW and NE are concerned muhammadu Buhari have no rival. Who is Sambo in Kaduna? Even in his local PU and ward he is a nonentity. As for the to topic, the PDP guy is insane. Where was he when Rauf Aregbesola disgraced Jonathan and Omisore in last August? Did he(Chairman) not lose his Polling unit and ward? Who is he to speak for the intelligent SWsterners?

PDP will surely win southwest, majority of the voters in southwest are not yorubas.

Like seriously , please emphasize how Aregbe destroyed GEJ, Omisore , PDP last august , they went as far as deploying 40,000 security men , DSS , Mpolice , Nscdc , even touts wearing uniforms were used , 10,000 sniffer dogs , Osunstate was locked down for 3 days ,whereas no riots , no fights , no bombs , no explosions , they just wanted to intimidate residents

There's power in words and its good to have a good reputation , Aregbesola said they learnt of plans to intimidate and arrest APC members , he stressed that no one should be afraid , he said even if he AregbeSola gets arrested , citizens should go out enmass and vote for APC

And truly when these security outfits came , they massed up , They , under the order and support from GEJ arrested lots of prominent APC members , they tried to arrest / assassinate Adeleke of Ede , the one and Only , that was the last straw , 3-4 former state governors teamed up with Aregbe , just as 3-4 ex presidents now back GMB

They tried to rig, they almost succeeded in rigging in favor of Omisore , every suspect caught with live and sensitive voting materials and weapons across the state was PDP member , residents caught two people who confessed their mission and were taken to a headquarters in Osogbo I think , All news stations including coretv news , channels and ,Osun TV : OSBC ,NTA Osogbo , had broadcasted the pictures and confessions of these suspects , then order came from the top to release the suspects



Anyways , we know they will attempt to rig this coming election , and they are trying to intimidate us with Warships even though Nigerian Army still can't purchase weapons

Trying intimidate us with tompolo and agoati Dokubo and the mend and massob , threatning us with Biafra and blaming the north

This year We will disgrace Jonathan , and if his clans want war , that's what they'll get. Enough is enough

This will make one of the Best Post of 2015. Weldone bros!

This is absolutely a dumb comment.....if the majority of SWneeners are not Yorubas....then what are they? Aliens?

Dumb reasoning....GEJ supporters on NL are getting dumber as the elections get nearer.

I don't get your point, do you mean south westerners (yorubas) don't vote or what?

Are you serious? Meaning there are more non-yoruba voters in yoruba land more than the yorubas themselves?

Hahahahahahahaha!!!!

customized13:
political thuggery is a prominent exercise in southwest, they will prefer to involve themselves in this rather than voting.

NB: yorubas are not southwesterners, southwesterners are occupant of southwest geopolitical zone of Nigeria.

Majority of the voters are not Yorubas and not the total population of southwest

It is true, but 90% are Yoruba
