Whoever does that is looking for trouble. But give the candidate the opportunity to present his programme so that people can make up their minds on what to do. I think this is a very sound democratic principle and that is what I have decided to do, to give you the opportunity of meeting with the people. “One, they see you as a person, how beautiful you are, whether to engage with you or not, to listen to you and see if there are areas where we can meet, as a result, everybody congregating here, they belong to different groups, they are PDP members, APC members, APGA, they belong to various interests, and when they come, they get to the gate, they shed their togas. “PDP will remove their PDP, APC will remove their own, APGA will remove their own, they are going to the palace, to meet their ruler, their paramount ruler, to receive that important august visitor who is coming to their land and give him all honour that he is entitled to. “I am sure over the years, there has been improvement but this election is full of tension, I don’t know how it is so, elections have never been like this. In about 55 years, I have never seen any election that is full of tension and the one we are having now, my prayer is, God should guide us and make sure that there’s peace, harmony and tranquility in the country,” he said. In his speech, the President pledged to partner with Ijebu sons and daughters in the area of appointment, describing Ijebuland as a great land.

With all die respect sir, you made a mistake borne out of your character. You as the Awujale have spoken based on what "you assume is ideal and is expected to be done". You have spoken well and you have spoken the truth. You have spoken fropm the position of an honourable man. But for you to say its not possible for any oba to endorse a politician, that one is incorrect because it happens and has happened many times. Akiolu just even did it. I'm now not saying that endorsing a candidate as an oba is bad its just that for traditional rulers, neutrality seems the better option. |
