Your threat to capture Ondo, South-West is reckless – PDP knocks Ganduje

The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has faulted the recent remarks by the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Abdullahi Ganduje, pertaining to the APC’s intention to capture Ondo State and, by extension, the entire South-West region.

PDP National Publicity Secretary, Debo Ologunagba in a statement on Monday, described Ganduje’s comments as reckless and threatening.

He emphasized that the South-West has historically been a stronghold of opposition and democracy, expressing concern over Ganduje’s threats made during his visit to Ondo State.

“What Ganduje said about the APC’s plans to ‘capture’ Ondo and the South-West is both alarming and inappropriate,” Ologunagba stated.

“The term ‘capture’ implies forceful control or occupation, and we will not accept being enslaved in our own land.

“Historically, attempts to impose control have led to significant unrest. The ‘wetie’ crisis in the 1960s and the National Party of Nigeria’s (NPN) efforts to impose Akin Omoboriowo as governor in 1983 both serve as reminders of what happens when the will of the people is disregarded.

“Any attempt by the APC to force itself upon the people of Ondo State will be met with strong resistance.”

The PDP also restated the call by Oyo State Governor Seun Makinde for the redeployment of the Ondo State Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) Resident Electoral Commissioner (REC).

The party accused the Ondo State REC of collaborating with APC leaders and displaying clear partisan bias.
