The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has dismissed the APC mega rally in Oshogbo, Osun state capital as a “colossal failure; a jamboree of rented
crowd.
PDP National Publicity Secretary, Olisa Metuh in a statement on Tuesday said the rally was “full of hollow and meaningless speeches, symptomatic
of a sinking party, desperate for survival”.
“Nigerians are aware that at the rally was a crowd mobilized from other states to join APC officials who were forced to relocate to Osun to
create an impression of massive support for the party and its candidate.
“However, we invite the APC to note that it is only the people of Osun and not their hired crowd and horde of entertainers that will vote on
Saturday, the PDP said.
Noting that a big humiliation awaits the APC, the PDP lampooned APC leaders who experienced a foretaste of the bitter fate ahead, when the
citizens of Osun state booed and jeered at them, calling their party “one-chance bus” as they arrived the state with their rented supporters.
The party once again thanked the people of Osun state for the support and solidarity shown its candidate, Senator Iyiola Omisore, while urging
them to remain vigilant ahead of the election.
