2023: Fayose Raise Concerns on PDP’s Victory in South-East, South-West

Ahead of the 2023 presidential election, a former governor of Ekiti state, Ayodele Fayose, has expressed concerns about the likelihood that the People’s Democratic Party, PDP, will win the South-West and South-East areas of the nation.

This claim was made by Fayose during a Thursday appearance with Politics Today on Channels Television.

He said, “Let me give you an analysis. In the South-West, people might not like to hear that. I don’t see how PDP will win. Anybody deceiving us can continue to deceive us.

“I don’t see how PDP will win in the South-East. South-south will be a combination of all interests. Let me come to the critical states of the north.

“Without deceiving ourselves, there is so much work to do in the north-central. PDP and APC did not pick any candidate, either presidential or vice-presidential, from the north-central. The North-East is where the vice-presidential candidate of APC comes from.

“We will give Adamawa state to our party. Don’t forget there is still another Kwankwaso who is a semi-cancer that can equally upstage figures in the north,” he said.

The Peoples Democratic Party’s chances in the 2023 elections, according to Fayose, could be impacted by the Labour Party’s Peter Obi, LP, presidential candidate.

“Reconciling or negotiating with Obi will be a good thing, and finding a way to make peace with these Wike people will be a good thing, too,” he added.
