2019 Election: Segun Osoba Doubts APC’s Victory…Laments Its Unfulfilled Promises

A former Governor of Ogun State, Chief Segun Osoba, has expressed doubt over chances of his party, All Progressives Congress (APC), winning the upcoming 2019 Presidential Election. He said that he noted that if APC fails to do its homework, many of its leaders will join former Vice President Atiku Abubakar in Peoples Democratic Party, PDP. Meanwhile he also said that South West leaders of the APC need to sit with President Buhari and renegotiate their alliance.

He said, “I have told you that I am holding a delicate and important position within the APC in the South West. I have access at every level to express my views at the age of 78. I will be honest with you. The health challenges that our president faced, was a serious challenge to the party itself, that created some problem for us. I am happy that the president himself is back and immediately called a major national caucus meeting on October 30, followed by NEC meeting and we took certain decisions there. I hope those decisions will be implemented. I don’t want to talk publicly about it. I still believe in what I said there that we need serious rethinking. Take for example, party membership, with the situation in PDP now, we need to open our doors and really do serious recruitment of members at the grassroots”.
