Nigeria’s Senate President, Dr. Bukola Saraki has said that the leaders and candidates of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) have all the requisite qualifications to win next year’s general elections.
Speaking at the inauguration of a 42-man Campaign Council for the Kwara State PDP at ABS constituency office in Ilorin, Saraki said the party would not only sweep the elections in Kwara State but would win the presidential election.
He also urged his supporters not to be afraid of the use of federal might in the forthcoming general election, noting that he had confronted such situations in two previous elections and floored the incumbents.
“Don’t be afraid. Don’t create fears in your heart, I have heard all the talks of the opposition about using federal might. But we have seen it all. We saw it in 2003, we saw it in 2015 or don’t you know that they used federal might in 2015?
“In 2015 with federal might we defeated them. It was you people that God used then and in 2019 with those who have come to join us, we will defeat them again,” Saraki said.
“Every election has its challenges but we have what it takes to tackle it and once you are committed, victory is ours. It is only when the PDP is in power at the federal level that things can return to normal for suffering Nigerians and the hope of the people properly addressed,” he added.
