Governor Babangida Aliyu has said that the Peoples Democratic Party will win the 2015 elections both at the State (Niger) and Federal levels.
The Governor, speaking to beneficiaries of SURE-P grants in Minna yesterday, said even though some opponents were to go as far as Senegal or Mali to seek out vultures and donkeys to perform sacrifices so that PDP candidates would not be liked, they would eventually fail.
His words: “PDP will win the governorship election in Niger State in 2015, and we will do it by God’s guidance and by our clean minds.
“If anybody is with clean mind, God will assist the person no matter what people say. Even people who slaughter donkeys and vultures may need to go to Senegal or Mali. That is a long way to go to get these animals. So, whether you slaughter vultures or donkeys so that nobody will be liked, I am happy my people like me, and I can go anywhere and say ‘we did all we did with your support because we let you know what is happening and you advised’.
“A leader must always be ready for criticisms because most times when people criticise it is because they don’t know the basis of the decision that has been taken, but if they know, they may advice on how to correct it and how to make it better. Criticism is one of the ways to make leaders be in the know.”
“PDP shall form the next Federal Government,” Aliyu said.
