Governor of Ondo State, Olusegun Mimiko has maintained that presidential candidate of the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Goodluck Jonathan will emerge victorious in the forth coming March 28, 2015 election.
Addressing press men in Ife, after President Jonathan's visit to the Ooni of Ife, Oba Okunade Sijuwade to seek the monarch's support, alongside other traditional rulers and the people of Osun State, the Ondo State governor assured that Jonathan would defeat the candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Muhammadu Buhari across the country and would defeat him in all the states in the South-West by securing at least 75 per cent of the votes in the region.
According to the governor, "With all sense of humility, President Jonathan will have more than 75 per cent of votes in Yoruba land.
"APC is well grounded in propaganda and the super structure of their programmes is propaganda. For so long, we have been the advocates of federalism in Nigeria and president Jonathan has better chances of winning again."
He added that the president would defeat convincingly on the reason that the restructuring which most Nigerians were clamouring for were embedded in the report of the Confab which the President had promised to implement if he won a re-election.
Mimiko said, "Federalism which the Yoruba people had always advocated was part of the report. Its implementation would put the nation on a steady path of development."
