Osun: PDP victory, a blessing in disguise, says Tinubu group

Disciples of Jagaban (DOJ), a Bola Tinubu presidential aspiration support group has advised his supporters not to feel dejected by Saturday's victory of the People's Democratic Party (PDP) in the gubernatorial election in Osun state.

The group said in a press statement issued in Kaduna Sunday that the outcome was a good lesson that should spur their party, the All Progressives Congress(APC), to prepare ahead of the presidential election next year.

DOJ's National Coordinator, AbdulHakeem Alawuje who signed the statement said "there is no reason for us to be wasting our time on the just concluded election in Osun state."
He called for a review of its activities instead of allowing the outcome of the osun elections to have a negative impact on them.

"All that is required now is, we only need to adjust against future", noting that "the election has come and gone, so It must not be a thing to worry about as sometimes challenges are good for one to measure up for future challenge."

"We also call on those who are leaders of the Tinubu Campaign Council not to undermine other groups who can bring victory to the party and the presidential candidate.

"The undisputable truth that is far beyond the interests of ethnicity and religion, is that Tinubu's opponents are out to hide behind sentiments.

"Let us calm down so that we can see who are the contestants, what are their past and track records, keeping political sentiments aside.

"The only problem we have in Nigeria is that we refuse to identify individual differences; we are trying to ignore them. But, the natural fundamental principles of life will not allow things to work seamlessly until we identify and know how to meet up with individuals' needs without tampering with the individuals' rights.

"What we need to work on is good governance, how to make our nation to work for all, how to improve our national services, and how to advance our economic system."
