Minister of State for Federal Capital Territory FCT, Oloye Olajumoke Akinjide, says the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP would capture the South-west come 2015.
Akinjide said this while receiving members of the Osun State chapter of the party who visited her in Abuja.

She also called on political parties in the country to democratize their internal structures as a way of consolidating democracy in the country, adding that the PDP in the South-west was aligning itself with people centered candidates.
“Our goal as PDP in the South-west is that we must win back all our states because it is not in the interest of the zone to be outside the government at the federal level and it is not also in the interest of Nigeria because if you are not inside, you cannot be part of the decision-making process. You will always view every decision of government with suspicion. So, it is important that the Yoruba people take their pride of place in national politics”, she said.
Leader of the delegation and Chairman, Governing Board of the Federal Roads Maintenance Agency FERMA, Engr. Jide Adeniji, commended the minister for spearheading the process of reconciliation among feuding members of the party in Oyo State.
Adeniji, who disclosed that the party in Osun was already galvanizing forces ahead of the next general elections, however decried the present situation where the “state is treated like an annex of Lagos State.”
