Ahead of the 2015 general elections, the
Peoples Democratic Party in Ogun State on Thursday began a spiritual
warfare against the Action Congress of Nigeria-led administration of
Governor Ibikunle Amosun.
Consequently, the Ogun PDP has told
Amosun and the ruling ACN in the state that they should forget about
having a second term at the Oke-Mosan, Abeokuta Governor’s Office in
2015.
At a one-day inter-religious prayer
session organised by the PDP National Youth Vanguard at the party
secretariat in Abeokuta, the state capital, five Christian and Muslim
clerics prayed for the success of the PDP in the state in the
forthcoming elections.
The five clerics who conducted the
prayers included Pastor John Akinbode, Pastor Kinrin Emmanuel, Apostle
Olusesi Obateye, Ustaz Giyath Oyelayo and Ustaz Abiola Uthman.
While the Christian clerics were from
the Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria, their Muslim counterparts were
members of the Morcaz in Ogun State.
Quoting copiously from the Holy Quoran
and the Bible, the clerics prayed for continued unity of the opposition
party as well as their success in the 2015 polls.
The clerics further predicted victory for the PDP in the next election in the state.
Chairman of the PDP in the state, Chief
Adebayo Dayo, during the prayer session that the people of the state had
suffered untold hardship due to the improper handling of the state
affairs by the Amosun administration.
Dayo said with the spiritual war
declared against the state administration by the opposition party, the
ACN-led government should prepare to leave the saddle in the next
general elections.
He said, “No matter what they do, God is
there. If they put themselves in the hole, God will be looking at them.
So, we are using today to tell God what we have been going through. We
have been going through hell under the leadership of Governor Ibikunle
Amosun and we want to beg God to come to our rescue and I tell you by
the grace of God, come 2015 election, we’ll all be there. We shall all
be in that office to chase him out.
“We thank God for today. Not long ago,
we read it in the papers that PDP is dead in Ogun State. Ibikunle Amosun
is deceiving himself. PDP is not dead. PDP is alive. But today is a day
of prayer and not campaigns. All the bad wishes that they have been
saying against our party, all the thinking of our enemies it will be
returned to them by the grace of God.
“PDP is here to stay. PDP is now one. We
are PDP under the leadership of our Baba, Chief Obasanjo. Prince Buruji
Kashamu is our leader. We are all working together for the success of
the PDP in Ogun State. Whether ACN likes it or not, there will be no
room for them. There will be no room for second term. So, by the grace
of God, we are going to take back that office come 2015.”
He added, “The prayers they have come to
do for us today, may it be acceptable to God and may we see the
results. Every good or bad situation requires prayers. Because
everything we have been doing in the PDP all this while, it seems there
are some people by the corner who have been sabotaging our efforts and
saying that there should be no peace in the PDP. But God has made it
impossible for them.”
The Ogun PDP boss stressed that prayers
had become imperative for the opposition party in its bid to regain its
lost glory in the state, urging members not to relent in their spiritual
battle against the ruling ACN.”
