PDP expresses confidence in victory during Osun Gov elections


Debo-Ologunagba-PDP

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has described the July 16 Osun State Governorship election as low-hanging fruit for the party.

The partyā€™s National Secretary, Mr Samuel Anyanwu, stated this on Wednesday, July 6, in Abuja.

He spoke when the partyā€™s Special Reconciliation Committee for Osun and Lagos submitted its interim report on Osun State to the party National Working Committee (NWC).

Anyanwu said that the PDP had no doubt about winning Osun State, which according to him would be extended to Lagos and other South West states.

ā€œOn behalf of the NWC, we want to appreciate you for your time because we know how tasking this could be

ā€œWe pray that this assignment will yield fruit. By the special grace of God, Osun State is low-hanging fruit for PDP. This time around, we are going to win again.

ā€œIt will be in the history of our party that this committee devised the process of wining Osun and we are going to send you more assignments.

ā€œWe have no doubt that Osun was a positive report on Lagos State. If we are able to win Osun and Lagos State, we are already for the South West,ā€ Anyanwu said.

The partyā€™s acting National Chairman, Umar Damagum, who accepted the interim report, commended the committee for its speedy response to the call of the party.

Damagum, who is also the PDP Deputy National Chairman (North), described the way the reconciliation was carried out as one of the best.

ā€œIn less than six to seven weeks after the assignment was given, we have seen your handiwork.

ā€œThe moment you were inaugurated, you hit the road. It has yielded fruits greatly, and we are sure of victory.

ā€œHowever, we want to enjoin you, even though there was no election in Lagos, your assignment is for Osun and Lagos.

ā€œI want you to take this opportunity, just like in Osun, to hit the ground in Lagos, because even Lagos too, you have ample time to go to Lagos and make sure what you did in Osun is repeated in Lagos.

ā€œThis your report will go a long way, not only in Osun but also in other states,ā€ he said.

Earlier, submitting the interim report, the Chairman of the Special Reconciliation Committee, Jegede, said that with the coming together of the party factions in Osun, victory awaits PDP in the state.

Jegede, who was the PDP Governorship Candidate in Ondo State for the 2017 and 2021 governorship elections, said that though the committee assignment was on two states, it accorded Osun a priority because of the upcoming election in the state.

He said that the committee members immediately after the inauguration went into action in Osun, and interacted with contending factions, believing that working together will guarantee PDP victory.
