Tambuwal said, “What happened in Osun State recently is a sign of what to come. The South-West is going to be delivered to the PDP come 2023.”
Senator Iyorchia Ayu, the party’s national chairman, who was represented by Ambassador Umar Damagun, urged party members to vote for PDP candidates and claimed that the PDP had nothing to fear from the upcoming elections.
Atiku, according to Adeleke, is a crucial component of the South-West area and will prevail in 2023 with the help of God.
