“African leaders
are not honest. If somebody who begged for a term is now seeking a
second term, there is no honesty in that. It is not that the Peoples
Democratic Party is popular.
“Nigerians are
tired of the PDP, they are still in power because they are the one who
organised elections in the country but I hope by next election we are
going to have a more credible election that would automatically reduce
the number of PDP governors in the states.
The PDP cannot
win more than 10 states if a credible election is conducted.”
Those were the words of the Speaker of the Ekiti State House of
Assembly, Dr. Adewale Omirin, while blaming the rising insecurity in the
country on President Goodluck Jonathan’s alleged plan to seek a second
term in 2015.
He said it was
wrong for Mr. President to have said his first term would end in 2015.
Dr. Omirin, who said this in an interview with journalists in Ado-Ekiti
on Wednesday, also insisted that the National Security Adviser, Gen.
Owoye Azazi (rtd.) could not be wrong in blaming the PDP for the crisis,
considering the information at his disposal.
