OPC leader Dr. Fredrick Fasehun has said he played a major role in making sure that the presidential election that was meant to hold on February, 14th, 2015 was postponed because if it held the sitting president would have lost. And so we shifted it, he said. Below are the statements of the Leader of pan-Yoruba group, the Oodua People’s Congress (OPC) which he made at a Post-National Conference event sponsored by the Ondo State Governor, Olusegun Mimiko recently. The video was obtained and posted online by Saharareporters.
“The senator (Mojisola Akinfenwa) came to me and said, ‘look, I think Jonathan is losing this battle and I responded to him, ‘Baba, I will never experience any loss in battle. Today, we shall shift this election. And by the grace of God, when we had spoken to few people, Jega had no option but to shift the date of the election. If that election was not shifted, I bet you that Jonathan would have lost that election. Continue…
“The rigging had been perfected, the war-torn region of the North-East; Yobe was having 80 per cent PVC (distribution) while Lagos only had 62 per cent and even the governor himself was still crying to be given his own PVC.
“So, the few PVC we have must be maximised. That is why I am appealing to everyone. Let us all go there and this time, cast our votes in favour of a friend. Jonathan can be a friend.”
He also says he never believes the opposition is not also corrupt, and reminded Nigerians of the past;
“I am not carried away by the fact that somebody is not corrupt… People are turning history upside down. Who is not corrupt? Have we forgotten the $ 2.8bn lost? Have we forgotten the 52 suitcases filled with new currencies? Have we forgotten the chairmanship of PTF?
“Have we forgotten that somebody recently said that if he doesn’t win the election or if the election does not go in his favour, the blood of baboon will mix with the blood of dogs? Whereas, Jonathan said my ambition to become President of this nation should not cost one drop of any Nigerian’s blood.”
