Femi Fani-Kayode, the Director of Media and Publicity of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Presidential Campaign Organisation has described as unfortunate the endorsement of the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, General Muhammadu Buhari by former President Olusegun Obasanjo.
He said although news of the said endorsement by Obasanjo came as a surprise, it meant nothing as Obasanjo only had one vote.
He spoke to newsmen in Abuja on Wednesday, February 11, 2015, stating that the PDP and President Goodluck Jonathan’s campaign organisation was unperturbed as Obasanjo was entitled to his opinion,
He said: “I have to confess to you, I have not seen what ex-President Obasanjo said. I have just been told and I haven’t read the text.
“As far as I am concerned, (ex)President Obasanjo is entitled to his opinion. He is a respected member of our society, and we have immense respect for him. This election is about one man, one vote and we should restrict our choices and decisions to ourselves.
“I believe it will be a very sad day indeed, if going by what we all know about General Buhari and what General Obasanjo knows about General Buhari that he will still go out of his way to endorse him for anything and I will be very surprised.
“But we will meet them all at the polls; we will meet on the field and by the grace of God, at the end of it all, those that have endorsed Buhari, of course, they know that President Goodluck Jonathan has come of age and Nigerians will make their choice and we shall win.”
