PDP’s Oyo Bye-Election Victory Signposts APC’s Fate in 2019

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) says its sweeping victory in the Oyo
State Assembly bye-election signals the return of the Southwest 
geo-political zone to the PDP.

This victory is also an indicator of the inescapable fate that will 
befall the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the 2019 general election.

The victory confirms that Nigerians of the Southwest extraction are 
natural democrats and that voters, at the grassroots, have seen through 
the propaganda, lies and deceit of the APC.

The electoral success, which came in spite of the several machinations 
of the APC, further settles the fact that Oyo state and indeed, the 
Southwest, remains PDP stronghold where our great party commands genuine 
followership and support of citizens at the grassroots.

With this victory, the PDP is poised to rally with the people to retake 
Oyo state as well as our original states of Ogun, Osun, Ondo and even 
spread to Lagos state, after our inevitable victory in the forthcoming 
Ekiti governorship election.

The PDP therefore charges all members in other parts of the country to 
leverage on the tremendous support by Nigerians across board to ensure 
such landslide victories at all levels of elections, come 2019.

The repositioned PDP, rallying with Nigerians, is set to retake all our 
original states, including Kaduna, Kano, Sokoto, Katsina, Jigawa, Kebbi, 
Niger, Kwara, Benue, Nasarawa, Plateau, Kogi, Bauchi, Adamawa, Yobe, 
Edo, Imo and spread over to Zamfara and Borno.

The PDP congratulates the flagbearer in the Oyo bye-election, Hon Adebo 
Ogundoyin, the people of Ibarapa east and all our leaders and members of 
our great party in Oyo state for their resilience and loyalty to the 
good cause.

The party also charges Hon. Igundoyin to reciprocate the support of the 
people by ensuring a people-oriented representation, in line with the 
ideology and manifesto of the PDP.
