The vice president, Arc. Namadi Sambo, yesterday said the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) will recover Ekiti and Osun states and the entire South West ahead of the governorship election in 2014 and general elections in 2015, declaring that the party is heading for war.
Sambo, who lamented that the states were stolen from the PDP, however, assured that the principle of one man, one vote and transparent election will be demonstrated in Ekiti and Osun states.
Speaking at the inauguration of the national campaign committee ahead of the governorship elections in both states, Sambo said “We will deliver Osun and Ekiti to PDP. There is no doubt that the party will succeed.”
While the Ekiti election holds on June 21, the Osun election is billed for August 9.
Sambo who serves as chairman of the campaign committee for both states said, “By inaugurating us today, we will go to the war front and bring back our stolen mandate. Everybody knows that Ekiti belongs to PDP but people used different means to take it from us.
“Osun is a PDP state but it was stolen from us. The end of stealing has come. There will be a free and fair election.”
He further commended the national chairman of PDP, Adamu Mu’azu for providing a conducive environment for the conduct of the primaries in both states, noting that “Everybody witnessed transparent free and fair primaries”.
He noted that the primary election was able to bring Fayose back, describing him as a grassroots politician “who will bring back sanity to the state”.
He called on the candidates to assist in ensuring that all are carried along so that the plan to bring back PDP government in both states will succeed.
