The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Abdullahi Ganduje has been told to pay serious attention to the political history of the Southwest to assist him in making informed lines while making public comments about the Southwest, calling on him to exersice caution in his desperate attempt to impress his party stalwarts.
Ganduje had boasted at a political gathering in Ondo State that his party would deploy all means to capture the entire Southwest without recourse to electoral act, Constitution of Nigeria and the rights of the people to choose their leaders.
In a statement signed by PDP’s state Chairman,Hon. Sunday Bisi on Monday, cautioned Ganduje over such reckless utterances capable of igniting citizens’ which, in turn, could destabilse the country, saying Osun people will decide their Governor when the poll is opened for such exercise.
“For a man who could not salvage his home state for the APC, owing to his disastrous regime as governor of the state, to start threatening fire and brimstone in the Southwest, is not only reckless but absolutely insane, the PDP Chairman” Hon Sunday Bisi said in a statement on Monday.
The PDP Chairman described Ganduje’s postulation as a careless plot to plunge the Southwest into avoidable political turmoil in a country that is already on a stressed line of ethic distrust and economic challenges.
“While Mr President continues to battle depressed state of the nation’s economy, Mr Ganduje should be careful not to compound the situation by attempting barefaced election rigging, especially in the Southwest, as doing so will be nothing but stepping on a very dangerous cobra’s tail”
“If Mallam Ganduje failed as he did, to cause war in Kano where the APC was discarded for his harrowing reign in the state, he should be ready to face and accept similar verdicts in other states where APC have failed the electorate”
“For us in Osun, we are used to such unstatemanly utterances, which resulted in a more disastrous outing for Ganduje’s party in the 2022 governorship election after his predecessor in office openly mandated APC thugs to invade and rig election in Osun. This, Mr Ganduje must remember, irked the highly intelligent people of the state by voting aggressively against the then APCbcandidate, Gboyega Oyetola. Same fate, we want to assure, awaits APC in Osun State” Hon Sunday Bisi concluded
