The leader of the Oodua People’s Congress and a revolutionary Yoruba leader Otunba Ganiyu Adams has expressed his opinion about the ongoing political campaigns in Nigeria towards the 2015 election. This is a clear show of the heart beat of the people of Yoruba Land as he is a monumental leader that commands more respect than Tinubu amongst the grassroots youths.
“I do not see overwhelming support for Buhari yet; it is all propaganda. The opposition has a very strong media team against the ruling party and don’t forget that with the kind of propaganda that has been unleashed in the past three months, no one expected that President Jonathan will GET
the kind of crowd he got when he campaigned in Kano and Kastina (those are the core north). I think that it is out of frustration that some of them stoned him in Bauchi.

If he was not doing well, there was no need for anyone to have stoned or thrown sachet water at him. Go out there and vote against him. Why stone him? I didn’t believe that he could pull that kind of crowd in the North. That shows that with the propaganda, the opposition is deceiving Nigerians, which is not working in the mindset of the people.
When he came to Lagos, the entire Lagos was jam-packed and he has not
gone to Port Harcourt and Yenogoa, he is yet to campaign in Cross River, Edo, Delta, Ondo and many other places. It is going to be 60, 40 ratio because you cannot rule out the power of incumbency at the dying minutes. I give 40 percent to opposition and 60 for the ruling party. Don’t be surprised that a week to the election, most of the parties will adopt Jonathan as their candidate.

I foresee Labour Party and Accord Party adopting the President and they will work for him in their states. So when you are talking of overwhelming support for Buhari, though the support he has now is more than what he had in 2007 and 2011 but is not what can be described as overwhelming. You know that people like Tinubu (Asiwaju Bola) are very good in media.
Tinubu can sell stone as bread, using the media. He has that strategy. He will turn stone to bread through media.
But luckily, people still have their conscience and you cannot because you want to get their sympathy you now foment security threat in YOUR region to discredit a sitting president. People have their own views and they know what to do at the right time.”
