The National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Prince Uche Secondus, on Tuesday advised the new Inspector General of Police, Adamu Abuabakar Mohammad to “tread the route of credibility in his new job by clearing the mess heaped on the force by his predecessor, Ibrahim Idris.”
Prince Secondus’ advisory came as he addressed party supporters at the Freedom Square, Oshogbo, Osun State on Tuesday when the presidential campaign train of the party continued their South West campaign.
The National Chairman told the new IG that he needed to carve his own path and avoid everything that has to do with his predecessor whom he accused of serving the APC and the cabals and not the Nigeria Police or the Nigerian people.
According to a statement from his media office signed by Ike Abonyi, Prince Secondus said the new IG has a herculean task because enough damage was done to the force by his predecessor.
He told the jubilant crowd to stand by the PDP the way they did in September 8, 2018 gubernatorial election assuring them that their stolen mandate must be returned to them because “we have God of Justice on the throne.”
The National chairmen warned the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and security agencies never to attempt a repeat of the alleged rigging they perpetrated in Osun in the 2018 governorship poll as according to him, “The people are ready to deal decisively with election manipulators this time.”
Prince Secondus charged the people to “troop out on February 16, 2019 to vote for an energetic President who will tackle their problems unlike the seating President who sleeps all through and outsourced the presidency to cabals while the nation’s challenges multiplied.”
The presidential candidate Atiku who also addressed the huge crowd told them that they should not vote for APC because they were unable to keep any of the promises they made in 2015 to the people.
” Instead of giving you the job they promised, they stole the ones you have and made us the poverty capital of the world. They cannot be trusted”
The wife of the candidate, Titi Abubakar, who hails from the state danced and sang to the cheering crowd assuring them in the song that “when Atiku don de rule, Nigeria go better.”
The former Governors of Ekiti, Ogun and Osun states, Ayo Fayose, Gbenga Daniel, and Olahunsoye Oyinlola respectively as well as the PDP Chairman in the state all spoke assuring PDP leadership of 80 per cent of Osun votes come February 16.
Earlier the candidate and the National Chairman had led other leaders of the party to the palaces of the Ooni of Ife at Ile Ife and the Oba of Ijesaland in Ijesa on a courtesy call where the two royal father’s prayed for them.
