Ondo 2016: Pdp Members Defect Enmass To Apc by suasmablow(m): 12:16pm On Nov 18, 2016
As the political gimmicks in Ondo State continues ahead of the November 26 governorship election, thousands of PDP members officially decamped to the ALL PROGRESSIVES CONGRESS, APC, Thursday in Akoko South East Local Government, Isua Akoko.

The queue of defectors who picked various holes in the Mimiko administration as well as his imposition of Mr.Eyitayo Jegede from his senatorial district, all pledged their allegiance with Mr Akeredolu, the candidate of APC who was on a campaign rally in the area.

Those that defected included: Mr Wale Ozogoro ( former PDP state publicity secretary, former Local government chairman) Hon. Ade Olorunmo a.k.a chem chem ( former Akoko South East chairman) Mr Akande Kayode ( former PDP ward 10 chairman) Hon Asumo ( former ward representative) Hon Barr Ojo Victor ( former akoko South East chairman).

The defectors were received by the APC state secretary along with their thousands of supporters in a carnival like manner.

The breads are working wonders.

The defection is not an unusual thing. There will be movements in and out of both parties as the election approaches.

As a keen follower of Ondo politics, I wish to make the following observations:

1. Eyitayo Jegede's guber ambition & Mimiko's plan to elect his successor has hit a sudden stop. The Court of Appeal's decision to indefinitely adjourn Jegede's Appeal means Jimoh Ibrahim will be PDP's candidate in the election.

Mimiko & Jegede are left with 3 options.First,work for PDP's (Jimoh Ibrahim) victory and go to Court after the election for Jegede to be declared as the authentic candidate/Governor. Second, Work for Aketi (APC) or Oke (AD). Third, ensure in whatever way necessary that the election is postponed, in order to accommodate the Court's declaration of Jegede as the PDP candidate.
But with Mimiko's controversial meeting with Okorocha/Aketi, it appears Mimiko's machinery will work for APC. Part of the bargain may be a promise by the FG not to probe him!

2. Given that the Jegede/Mimiko structure is OUT, the election is now a straight fight between Aketi (APC) and Oke (AD). Jimoh Ibrahim (PDP) is a big joke. Apart from his strange emergence as PDP candidate, his reputation makes him a hard-sell. His business history is riddled with trails of failures and tragedies. Even though it's never good to say 'never' in politics, I can comfortably say that Jimoh Ibrahim can never win.

3. With the vast wealth & 'INEC might' of the FG behind him, Aketi (APC) is arguably the most favoured candidate to win. His chances is even more brighter because if reports that Mimiko will support him. But the ghost of his last attempt still haunts him. Although he did not have the federal backing that he enjoys now, he had an enormous cash-flow from Tinubu. Yet, he could only come a distant third in that election.

4.Wonder why Oke is a strong contender? He had more votes than Aketi in the last election. However, it may be argued that it was because Oke contested under PDP and enjoyed federal power. But any close-watcher of that election would agree that PDP's federal might was exclusively used for Mimiko (GEJ's calculation was that Mimiko (LP) stood a better chance of winning). This was why Mimiko eventually decamped to PDP after the election. But despite the fact that Oke had little support, he surprised many by his sterling performance @ the debate and the votes he garnered. I expect that APC will use their 'federal might' to suppress Oke because he (forget about his party) has a VERY STRONG chance of winning.

5.I know that the serial election-contestant Agunloye (SDP) is contesting. He's not part of the list because his chances are almost null.

[b]MY CONCLUSION:

* The election is now between Aketi & Oke. However, the real fight is between:
Buhari + El Rufai + Fayemi + Fashola + Amosun+Oyegun + The New Buhari Northern Oligarchy & possibly Mimiko
AND
Tinubu + Aregbesola + Ambode & possibly Fayose*.

*Based on current mood, Aketi cannot possibly enjoy the sympathy of most Ondo people. First, his party (APC) has shockingly underperformed and many might vent their frustration by not voting for APC. Second, the fact that his nomination is trailed by an evident belief that the New Buhari Oligarchy wants to impose him cannot sit well with Ondo people that are excessively egotistical. That he was perceived to be Tinubu's boy worked against him the last time. This may Happen again.

*However, Aketi and Oke both have the misfortune of being tagged "puppets". Aketi cannot wash-off the tag of The New Buhari Nothern Oligarchy's 'puppet'. Oke cannot also deny the label of 'Tinubu's puppet'. It is now up to Ondo people to decide on the puppet they prefer.

*If Oke is able to get financial support from Tinubu/Ambode, it will do him a lot of good. Without enough money, he will lose.

*The federal might that Aketi (APC) enjoys makes him an overwhelming favourite. But in a year that Donald Trump won against all odds and 'all might', who says Oke (APC) cannot win ?[/b]

Mr Man there's nothing wrong with the Judiciary. Jimoh saw a major loophole and grabbed it. Blame Mimiko, Fayose and Wike cool
