Guber Polls: APC Unlikely to Win Edo and Ondo- PDP

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has expressed doubts about the All Progressives Congress’ (APC) chances of winning the upcoming governorship contests in the states of Edo and Ondo.

This was said by Umar Damagum, the acting national chairman of the party, on Thursday in Abuja during the launch of the PDP National Campaign Councils for the governorship elections in Edo and Ondo.

He said that the way the candidates performed in the two states showed that the party would win the elections.

Damagum emphasised that Edo State Governor Godwin Obaseki had already set the groundwork for the party’s success in the state election, even as he expressed PDP’s confidence in winning the polls in Edo and Ondo. Damagum further stated that the party would not allow itself to be robbed of victory in either of the states.

“We refuse to take a seat and let anyone search, seize, or take anything. Any robber who rears his head to take our fortune will find us prepared for war.

“In Edo State, we’ve done so well. We express our gratitude to the governor. We are quite pleased with him. Our track record in that state says it all.

“I want to tell those who think they will take Edo that we live in a democratic dispensation, so it is going to be very difficult for them,” he stated.

Ondo is already prepared for the PDP to win, according to Damagum, who also counselled the state’s citizens to view the upcoming election as a chance to make further changes that would benefit them.
