APC Senator says Jonathan will not win Despite ”Bribing” Electorates
The All Progressives Congress has said that President Goodluck Jonathan will not win the forthcoming presidential election despite paying influential Nigerians to support his re-election.
The APC Senator, representing Osun East Senatorial District, Babajide Omoworare, made the allegations on Monday at a press conference organised by the Osun State Council of Nigeria Union of Journalists in Osogbo.
He said that the elections were postponed to allow President Jonathan to have time to prepare for the elections as the ruling party knows that Nigerians are ready to vote him out because of ineptitude and corruption.
He said: “President Jonathan travelled to meet with the Soun of Ogbomoso whose son is contesting on the platform of our party. He wasted money there. He also went to Oyo to meet with the Alaafin whose son is also contesting. He goes about wasting the nation’s resources.
“The money he should use to construct roads, and to provide other amenities- he is wasting the money. He cannot win even if he empties the treasury. He cannot win in the South West. I am sure that the majority of Yoruba people will not vote for him.”
The senator added that presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari ( retd.), proved himself as a man of integrity when he ruled the nation as a military ruler.
He urged all Nigerians irrespective of religious and ethnic backgrounds to support Buhari to win the election, saying that the country would not be able to cope with another four year of PDP rule.
