What is your reaction
to the outcome of the 2015 general election?
to the outcome of the 2015 general election?
We in PDP abandoned ‘we’ and we were discussing ‘I’ and that
is what has brought us now to this level. It is a bitter lesson that we must
have to learn from and we are going to start again from the scratch.

Because we were busy fighting ourselves, APC was busy
rigging the election two years back. This election was actually rigged two
years back because we were busy fighting ourselves; this governor is not good,
that governor is bad; so it is a bitter lesson to our leaders. Continue…

Secondly, far as I am concerned, the card reader was a
bigger issue than the voting point. In the electoral act, the card reader is
not there, but he forced Nigerians to accept it because he knew what he planned.

You said APC actually
concluded this election about two years ago. Can you substantiate this?

The taste of the pudding is in its eating. You cannot tell
me that if this arrangement were not in place about two years back, why did
Jega refuse to use card reader even for one state? If it were not a script he
followed; he should have tested the card reader in the Ekiti or Osun
governorship elections before going out to use it in 36 states and the FCT.

Do you see the APC really effecting the change they have
been proposing given that most of their key men are from PDP?

Like I keep telling people, change is not a manifesto. APC
has no manifesto; they only just wiped up sentiments, because PDP had been in
government for 16 years and then we played into their hands. You know the rich
man has more enemies in society than the poor man; that is why they succeeded
in whipping up sentiments. They don’t have a manifesto; they only just said
they want change.
