Lagos State: PDP Chieftain Hopeful Party Will Win In 2015 by bendeco(op): 4:17pm On Nov 17, 2014
Mr Sunday Olaifa, the Chairman, Peoples Democratic
Party (PDP), Oshodi/Isolo Local Government, said he
was confident that the PDP would form the next
government in the state.

Olaifa told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on
Monday in Lagos that “Lagosians are yearning for a
change and are tired of the neglect of the
commoners by the ruling party in the state’’.

He said that the PDP had resolved to come out with
the best candidates at all levels through the
primaries.
According to him, it is becoming increasingly clear to
the ruling party in the state that by one man, one
vote, PDP would win the coming governorship and
other elections in the state.

“As a party, we are doing everything humanly
possible and legally to ensure victory. We have done
reconciliation in the state like it had never been done
before.
“We have gone far in the area of mobilisation as it
had never been done in the party.

“The state executives went on tour of all the 20 local
government chapters of the party across the state
and the local government chapter leaderships also
went on a tour of all the wards aimed at massive
mobilisation drive.
“It can be seen that Lagosians have in totality been
rejecting the APC. One can feel it that the coming
elections will not be business as usual in favour of
the APC.

“The APC in Lagos State has taken the common
people for granted for so long. The tax burden in
Lagos is another reason why Lagosians have decided
to reject APC in the forthcoming 2015 general
elections, ’’ Olaifa said.

He condemned the blanket ban on
`Okada’ (motorcycle) without alternative provisions
to the riders as well as the rising tuition fees in
schools.

Olaifa alleged that there was an attempt by some
APC leaders during the INEC’s card distribution
exercise in Lagos Mainland Local Government
Council, to exchange unclaimed Permanent Voter’s
Cards for the Temporary Voter’s Cards they came
with.

He said the INEC voter’s cards distribution officer
turned down the request.
Olaifa drew the attention of the INEC Chairman,
Prof. Attahiru Jega to ongoing rigging at the various
polling units in the state.
“I have no doubt in my mind that in a free and fair
election, Lagosians have come to a conclusion to
reject the APC in the next general election in the
state come 2015,’’ he said.

Efforts to speak with the Lagos State APC Chairman,
Chief Henry Ajomale was not successful as his phone
line was switched off.

"APC tell you PDP's 16 years is a disaster, then they go to OBJ who had 8yrs from the 16, to tell them what to do. Am I missing something?"
