PDP Will Do Anything To Win 2015 General Elections – Aregbesola by Johnnyessence(m): 3:55am On Sep 09, 2014 |
Osun State Governor, Rauf Aregbesola yesterday said the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, is power drunk and wants to win the 2015 general elections at all cost. Aregbesola said this at the first APC Southwest Assembly in Ibadan, the Oyo State capital. Speaking on the August 9 governorship election, he said the masses, particularly women and school children, were those who defied the “intimidation” of thousands of mostly masked security operatives who went round the state intimidating voters before and during the election. The governor recalled that women, who are naturally overlooked, and school children, defied by gun-wielding security operatives to insist that they would exercise their civic rights and would only vote for the candidate of their choice. Aregbesola said with the masses and support from other APC-controlled states, the PDP, which he said, hid under the power of the Federal Government to militarize and intimidate voters against performing their civic duties or preventing them from voting for their choice candidates, would have won the election. He said: “The PDP is determined to take our states from us. They are ruthless opposition that will do anything to deny our people of their democratic choices. If we understand this early enough, we will see the need to stop them on their track. But if we underrate them, we will record losses. “The actual winners, those who defeated the opposition in Osun, were the ordinary men and women, particularly women who refused to be intimidated. They came out even in their most dreadful form. “For the first time, security operatives put on masks in broad day light in their thousands on trucks, shooting. But women came out to perform their duty. They sang against them and sent signals to them that they would not tolerate terror. “We must thank and celebrate them. We didn’t prepare them for it but they did it on their own. “Quickly following the women in the determination to exercise their rights were school children who always sang that people should vote for Aregbesola. It was unbelievable. “They deflated the ego of the people that wanted to dominate and terrorise us. Yes, our men worked but the determination of our women and the children including artisans, drivers, was high. Politicians must acknowledge them. “We must let people know that this is what they must do. They must refuse to be cowed, that they should vote and defend their votes. They deserve accolades for the victory of our party in the State of Osun. I will never forget them. Women that one would think wrongly are the least in a struggle like this. “When President Goodluck Jonathan came to Osun a week before the election to campaign for his party’s candidate, he referred to APC governors as miscreants. Can you imagine?” Aregbesola advised his party men to review their strategy if the party is serious about winning future elections, saying the PDP would stop at nothing to win elections. “Our policies and programmes must be geared towards mobilising and educating the people. From the leadership to the lowest level of our party, we must inspire the people. The only ones they cannot defeat are the people. “They arrested close to 1,000 of our leaders the night before the election. They even attempted to enter my house at Government House at about 1:30 am on election day. “The real stake in Osun is ego but in Lagos State, it is going to be for both ego and materials. The PDP took electoral contest as a war. But It was all well that ended well.” he said. dailypost.ng/2014/09/05/pdp-will-anything-win-2015-general-elections-aregbesola/ |

Here in Osun, PDP will continue to lose in elections until they can field the good ones in the party. Not the set of killers and thugs we used to know... Rauf has been able to restore our hope of better Osun... APC isn't the best part but it the best alternative that has happened to us... 1 Like |

The PDP is too desperate. PDP knows how to win election but does not know how to govern after winning election. This is not about GEJ. It is about that political party called PDP. PDP has ruin Nigeria. For 15 good yrs in power, no sector of our country's economy has been improved. Is it power, education, manufacturing, health, security, Job creation etc. Even if PDP stays in power for another 15 yrs, there won't be any improvement. |

pelvicky: No be this guy fault,,shebi wen dey don rig for him na im get mouth to yawn thrash...if he has lost osun nw..he won't speak..nonsense!Stop crying fowl... Not until your party can field the good and intelligent personalities in your party, you will continue to lose here in osun. You ought to bury you head in shame after all the intimidation and arrest of opposition party members... About 73,000 security operatives were deployed, still people came out to vote for their choice. I casted my vote at thesame unit with the former deputy gov (erelu obada), she was the one pointing at the opposition members to be arrested. If not that you guys are so desperate to be in power, you bought a vote for nothing less than #5000. Omisore doesn't have any good plan for Osun only to pay civil servants' salaries. |
