Former Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose has already conceded defeat for the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP in the ongoing 2023 presidential election, urging the presidential candidate of the party, Atiku Abubakar to do likewise and thereafter retire peacefully to Dubai.
Fayose who is one the PDP’s stalwarts, in a series of tweets on Monday, expressed frustration over the leadership of the party and its electoral strategy that was bound to fail.
Fayose said that the defeat was seen coming but an over-bloated sense of arrogance and self-entitlement from the leadership of the party ensured the party disgraced itself before the whole world in the 2023 elections.
Fayose, then, urged Atiku to accept defeat in maturity and retire peacefully to Dubai.
He wrote, “In life, they say what goes round comes round. Beyond this, does the PDP wants to win an election with a fractured party that it is now?
Kwankanso, Obi, etc were driven out of the party and they claimed they can win without the G5 Governors.
“Almighty’ Iyorchia Ayu, the National Chairman even lost his Ward and Local Government to another party after cashing out like a man struck and stock with poverty.
As it is now, PDP turning around to cry foul has no place with Nigerians. Not at all.
“Most importantly, election is a process and those not satisfied can vent their anger in court.
It is therefore time to allow Nigeria and Nigerians to move on.
If you think Nigerians loves or still want PDP as alternative, by now the message should be instructive.
“The present managers of the PDP need to be told that the sympathy of Nigerians is not for the party. They should stop hiding under Peter Obi’s LP to pretend to have a sense of patriotism that they don’t have.
“Our candidate, H.E. Atiku Abubakar (aka ‘Atiku is coming’) should accept defeat in maturity and retire peacefully to Dubai.
At this juncture, may I say good night and good bye to all you represent.
