Ondo polls: Prepare for your waterloo – PDP tells APC

The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in Ondo State has told the All Progressives Congress, APC, to brace up for its waterloo, stressing that the electorate in Ondo state would not abandon a party with achievements for another with no discernible results for almost two years of governance.

The party, in a statement issued through the Eyitayo Jegede Campaign Office in Akure and signed by its spokesman, Mr. Kayode Fasua, asserted that no window-dressing committee set up in Abuja can save the APC from defeat in the November 26 governorship election in Ondo State.

The statement reads in part, “Let the APC set up 1000-man committee in Abuja to help it win in Ondo State, it will still not stop the party from meeting its waterloo. Our people are wise, educated and intelligent and cannot be bought over with money or the glib or window-dressing committee that looks set to perpetrate roguery or indecent political game.

“The APC, as our people know of it, is deceitful, undisciplined, unfocused, revisionist, fractious and cannot deliver on electoral promises as prevailing circumstances have shown.

“These are even made worse by the disunity and unending crises that not only recently cracked the wall of the party but also collapsed it in its entirety, with a sizeable chunk of its population going to join another party.”

While faulting a claim by the APC that the Ondo election would be difficult and at the same time a walk-over, the ruling party in the state described the statement as contradictory and mischievous, expressing confidence in winning the forthcoming election based on its physical achievements across the state’s 18 local council areas, which the people can verify for themselves.

According to the statement, “If the APC does not have a hidden agenda for rigging or bullying of innocent voters, why is it describing the coming election as “difficult” and at the same time “a walk-over ?”

“Walk-over is a soccer language. It means your opponent has refused to participate in the compulsory match and as such, you are given victory without effort. That allegory can only mean that the APC wants to harass the PDP voters from coming out and that will not happen for a people determined to be liberated from hunger and economic misery.”
