The camp of the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, are currently in high spirits as Chief Ayo Adebanjo, a chieftain of the Afenifere, has claimed the people of the South West region will not be deceived again into voting for President Muhammadu Buhari by Asiwaju Bola Tinubu even as he declared his total support for Atiku in 2019.
He claimed that the All Progressives Congress (APC) National Leader successfully deceived the people of the South-West region in 2015 by claiming that President Buhari was a man of integrity and had the willpower to reverse the downtrodden fortunes of Nigerians.
According to Adebanjo, Tinubu now knows that he made a huge mistake by working hand in hand with Buhari, but won’t admit it because of his shame.
“Do you think we are stupid people in the South-West? Yoruba people are more intelligent than all that. Tinubu succeeded in 2015, because of the fake integrity attached to Buhari. He succeeded in bringing Buhari, because of the fake integrity attached to him, but the last three years has exposed him to be fake. People have seen him to be fake.
“He is not somebody anyone can rely upon, and I have no doubt in my mind that Tinubu would have seen the stupidity of aligning with him. By now, Tinubu must have realised the foolish mistake he made, by aligning with him, but he will not come out to admit it.
“Yoruba people are too intelligent to be used again. Once bitten, twice shy. Tinubu has sold the Yoruba by aligning with Buhari, even at this stage. He agreed with Buhari to do restructuring, to do federalism. When the man now got there and he is not doing it, has Tinubu got the courage to pull out? And I have said it to him and Vice President Yemi Osinbajo. They are unfair to the Yorubas, because everybody is thinking that because they represent the Yoruba, all the things against the race, they would address them. But they are quiet on them all.
“There are killings right and left, but they are quiet. They are quiet on the issue of revenue allocation. Even the case of Local Government under this restructuring, Tinubu took Obasanjo to court, it is part of restructuring programme, and the man who handled the case in court was Osinbajo. They won the case at the Supreme Court.
“Under what principle did they take the then President, Obasanjo, to court? They sold out and the same Osinbajo, who took Obasanjo to court for not following the Federal system, is now saying he does not understand what the Federal system means.”
