South-West People Will Not Vote APC Again In 2027 Elections; We Are Now Wiser — Oyo Governor Makinde
Oyo State governor, Seyi Makinde, has claimed the people of the South-West will not vote for the All Progressives Congress in the 2027 general elections.
Governor Makinde said the decision was due to the hardship inflicted on Nigerians by the party.
Makinde, who is the leader of the Peoples Democratic Party in the South-West, explained that Yoruba people who are predominantly residents of all states that make up the southwest region had realised their mistake for supporting Tinubu during the 2023 general elections.
Meanwhile, National Chairman of APC, Abdullahi Ganduje, had during a stakeholders meeting to reconcile the aggrieved party leaders, declared that the APC would capture the South-West for President Bola Tinubu in 2027.
Also, Ondo State Governor, Lucky Aiyedatiwa, who was on a campaign tour in Ese Odo LGA, had said the opposition PDP was dead in the state, noting that most of the opposition leaders in Ondo were back in APC.
Apparently referring to both Ganduje and Aiyedatiwa, Makinde said the PDP still had control of the South-West, saying the APC national chairman would be shocked with the support from the people for the main opposition party.
“If wishes were horses, everybody would be riding it. I can tell you that the people of the South-West of Nigeria are wiser and especially in Ondo State. On November 16, they will tell him (Ganduje) that Ondo State and indeed South-West is for the PDP,” he said on Thursday during a campaign in Ondo State.
Makinde added, “Talk, they say is cheap. You can say whatever you like with your mouth but the people of Ondo State, they will speak loud and clear on November 16, 2024 and then all of us in this country will hear it loud and clear.”
