LAGOS JUNE 23RD (URHOBOTODAY)-President Goodluck Jonathan, Vice President Namadi Sambo and National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Alhaji Adamu Mu’azu, popped non alcoholic champagnes to celebrate the land slide victory of Governor elect Ayo Fayose of the PDP over the Dr. Kayode Fayemi of the All Progressive Congress APC.
The trio and other members of the PDP Government met Sunday to review the victory and decided to celebrate the land slide victory which analyst believed marked the beginning of the end of APC dominance in the South West.
Sources told pointblanknews.com that the hierarchy of the PDP, beside the celebration, discussed strategy to adopt in winning the next Governorship elections in Osun State relying on the Ekiti victory and the current cracks within the APC.
Pointblanknews.com gathered that leaders of the PDP are bent on ensuring that hitherto controlled PDP states in the South West are won back in subsequent elections.
The strategy, according to a source familiar with ongoing meetings, includes harmonizing factions in Ogun, Osun and Oyo State which were PDP states and ensuring that only credible and accepted candidates are fielded for election.
“We are using the Ekiti as an example. We fielded Fayose, a man loved by his people from the top to bottom and it paid off. That is the way we will henceforth go. We will capitalize on Ekiti victory and fix our party in other opposition states where we have potentials to win,” a source who would not want to be named told Pointblanknews.com.
