Abeokuta—The governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party,
PDP, in Ogun State, Prince Gboyega Nasir Isiaka yesterday predicted landslide
victory for President Goodluck Jonathan, saying Ogun people will
massively vote for him and other National Assembly members fielded by the PDP.
He, however, disagreed with
some opinion polls that predicted victory for the All Progressive Congress,
APC, presidential candidate Gen. Muhammadu Buhari in Ogun State, saying such
polls did not reflect the reality on ground but were manipulated for a
pre-determined purpose.
He said many electorate in the state
did not see any fortune in Buhari’s presidency and they are determined to vote
against it.
He said: “Even as some credible
polls gave victory to President Jonathan, the PDP has not relented in its
efforts to ensure that Mr. President wins the election convincingly.
“We laughed at the polls that said
Buhari will win in Ogun State as the wishful thinking of the sponsors of the
polls. But unknown to them, Ogun people are already looking beyond the APC in
the state because the party has disappointed them with unfulfilled promises and
massive corruption going on in the state.”
Isiaka spoke while fielding
questions from journalists at a PDP sensitization rally in Abeokuta, the Ogun
State capital.
He said Ogun people are wiser than
to fall for the antics of the APC, noting that the propaganda and
sentiments that won them votes in 2011 are no longer tenable.
