Factional leader of the Yoruba group, Oodua People’s

be getting a bloc vote from the South-west in the February 14
presidential election.

Daily Posts reports that Adams told Nigeria Today that he does not agree with projections made by some pundits that Buhari will make a clean sweep of South-west by virtue of the dominance of his party in the geo-political zone, saying, “South-west is a place that you cannot use the media to deceive. We are highly exposed and highly educated.”
“For you to say we should go one way, it is impossible. I don’t think that the South-west will vote for Buhari en mass. Don’t forget the pain caused by the June 12 annulment, it is still fresh in the mind of our people many died in the cause of June 12 struggle, many lost a lot of properties. I don’t think our people will trust a Hausa/Fulani man from the north this time around.” the OPC leader is quoted as saying by Daily Trust
Although Adams was quick to point out that Jonathan alone should not be blamed for the nation’s failing. He insisted that governors and lawmakers should equally share in the blame.
It will be recalled that national president, Goodluck-for-Transformation and state Women Coordinator, Goodluck Campaign Organisation, Edo state, Chief (Mrs) Evelyn Igbafe and over 5000 others dumped the PDP for the APC.
