Ogun State Governor Ibikunle Amosun on Monday declared schemers working hard to turn President Muhammadu Buhari against him will fail woefully.
Amosun vaguely identified people he considered as “foreigners” with intent to enslave Ogun people and their votes as likely suspects in the plot to sway the President against him.
The Governor spoke at Kajola ward in Obafemi Owode Local Government Area in continuation of his campaign for Ogun Central Senatorial seat in the February National Assembly election.
He urged the people to vote for President Buhari, saying he has added value to the development of the country and the state in particular.
“All that they are doing is to turn President Buhari against me. Nobody can turn President Buhari against me. It is impossible.
“It is important we vote for President Buhari because he is adding value to the development of Nigeria and Ogun state too.
“Look at our railway, airport and power and many others so we should all vote for him.
“It was now the state is fast developing that some people are now trying to disrupt its peace.
“Where were they before this time? It is now that the state is fast developing they want to disrupt its peace. Resist them, don’t allow anybody to enslave you with your votes,” Amosun said.
In Obafe ward, Amosun advised people not to allow any politician collect their Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) in the name of given them loans.
He said: “Don’t allow anybody to collect your PVCs for loan, protect it very well. That is your right. Don’t give anybody your PVCs.”
Also in Oni Onipako ward, Amosun vowed to fight any politician that wants to disrupt the prevailing peaceful atmosphere in the state.
He appealed to the people not to engage in violence, urging them to continue to conduct themselves in a peaceful manner.
