Barely three weeks before next month’s general
elections, the national chairman of Social Democratic Party (SDP), Chief
Olu Falae, has warned electorates from the South western Nigeria, the
Yorubas, not to vote for the All Progressives Congress, APC,
candidates.
Falae gave the warning in Ondo State on Wednesday during a rally organised for SDP candidates for national and state assemblies, held at the City Hall in Akure.
He warned electorate in the state against voting for APC candidates
in next month’s general election, saying it would spell doom for the
state and the country.
Explaining why the Yorubas should not vote for the APC, Falae stated that the national leader of the APC, Senator Bola Tinubu, had no interest in the development of the Yoruba nation and the South-West in general.
He added that all activities of Tinubu and his party, APC, were always against the interest of the South-West when the position of the Speakership of the House of Representatives was zoned to the South-West region.
Falae also alleged that the position of the APC leader on the much-publicised national confab was condemnable, saying if many of the recommendations of the confab like decentralisation of railways control, seaport establishment and control of mineral resources were implemented, the South-West and Ondo State in particular had a lot to benefit.
The SDP chairman said this would reduce unemployment and open other opportunities and therefore advised the people of the state to vote for all the SDP candidates for the national and state house of assembly elections.
