Jalo, PDP Chieftain reveals how Jonathan may win or not if…

Alhaji Hassan Jalo, a People Democratic Party, PDP Scribe and a Chieftain, made this known during an interview with Journalist in Kaduna, has said that President Goodluck Jonathan and the ruling party, Peoples Democratic Party, PDP would win in 2015 and beyond, if only they do away with Abuja politicians who make empty promises to deliver one state or the other to the party at the forthcoming general elections.

This was as he raised alarm of fear that the PDP might fail if it continues to rely on the empty promises of the Abuja politicians whom he said cannot decide who wins the presidential elections.

According to him, “PDP will fail if it relies on Abuja politicians because they cannot decide who wins the presidential elections.
“PDP must go back to the drawing board and grassroots for it to come out victorious in the 2015 elections. People are defecting in mass from PDP in the grassroots.

“APC is a big threat to PDP because it is a formidable opposition.

“People close to Jonathan don’t tell him the truth. The PDP is in a serious problem if it does not go back to the drawing board and it keeps relying on the Abuja politicians.
“If the PDP does not do that I am afraid anything can happen in the 2015 general elections. PDP is in danger. You see the plain truth is PDP should not take APC lightly.

“APC is a very strong and formidable opposition party. In addition, is a threat to PDP. The 2015 election will not be like any other elections. Mind you, PDP has lost five formidable state governors.

“For PDP to lose Kano and Lagos, which are highly populated area, forget it. Kano and Lagos brings the highest votes in Nigeria.
“Any political party that can win the North-West and South-West and get additional votes from North-East, North-Central, South-East and South-South will win the Presidency.

“Majority of the votes comes from the North-West and South-West. And look at it that the PDP has lost Kano, North-West and Lagos, South-West. PDP has messed up by losing Kwara, Adamawa and Sokoto.

“When you take the Sokoto Caliphate which comprises of Sokoto, Zamfara and Kebbi, they vote en mass and even in this 2015 election they will vote in one direction from the way I’m looking at things.

“And all this forms part of the North-West. In Nigerian politics, ones you win the South-West and North-West, you have won the Presidency because that is where the bulk of the votes comes from.

The South-South and South-East don’t bring votes while the North-East and North-Central are divided. So the bulk of the votes comes from the North-West and South-West. A President can win the presidency without the votes of the South-South and South-East.

“Therefore, if you look at the calculations, you will know that PDP is in a clear danger. If they do not go back to the drawing board, stop relying on Abuja politicians and go back to the grassroots where the votes come from. PDP is finished.

“Abuja politicians are the problem of PDP. Mr. President should know that he is been deceived. He should tell the PDP National Chairman let everybody go back to their villages and mobilise for the party,” Jalo however voiced out.
