2015: ‘PDP, Jonathan’ll sweep South West’

Ahead of the 2015 general elections, the lawmaker representing Yewa South/Ipokia federal constituency, Chief Abiodun Akinlade, has reiterated the superior posture of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Ogun State, South West and the country at large, saying that the party is on a good stead to replicate its 2003 feat in the zone.

Speaking to newsmen in Lagos, the third term lawmaker noted that the people of the South West had tolerated and had enough of the opposition, adding that the re-election of President Goodluck Jonathan in 2015 would be a good thing for the PDP, as it would consolidate the transformation of the country.
Akinlade, a governorship aspirant of the PDP in Ogun State said with the influx of strong politicians into the party from the zone, the PDP was on its way to a landslide in the South West.
“The influence and achievements of the PDP as well as the personal demeanour of President Jonathan, will garner votes for the PDP to cruise to victory in Ogun, the South West and other parts of the country. The truth is that the PDP is the strongest party in the land and we have a pact and relationship with the citizens,” he said.
Dispelling insinuation from some quarters that he was working secretly with the opposition in the state, the House Committee Chairman on Science and Technology, described it as unfounded.
sheer blackmail and wicked in every sense, adding that he remains committed to the PDP and his loyalty is never in doubt at any point.
