Ahead of the November 16 Guber polls, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Ondo State says it will resist any act of intimidation in the election.
The party said it had uncovered plans to harass it.
This was the declaration of the party’s governorship candidate at the polls, Agboola Ajayi during a PDP youth programme on Monday in Akure, the state capital.
He expressed optimism that the party is going to win the forthcoming governorship poll despite any possible harassment.
He said, “We have seen signal; we have seen their plans but we are not scared of any intimidation. People will go out and vote; we are not scared of anybody once the youth conduct themselves in a civilised manner. You can’t take away their right to cast their votes for whoever they want to vote for.
“I have advised them that they must not allow any reflection to frustrate them and they must conquer poverty through their votes. When they do that, the chains of poverty will be cut off. We are prepared for them; we are ready for them. We will resist any act of intimidation.”
He claimed that the youth were already irritated by what is happening in the country.
The PDP guber candidate added that the anger of the youth has already built up and they are ready for positive change through their votes.
“People are waiting for the PDP. We will support the youth. Don’t be intimidated; the state belongs to all of us. Vote and defend your votes,” he assured them,” Ajayi charged.
