Former Governor of Lagos State, Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu, yesterday boasted that Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, will lose in the 2011 general elections in the South-West.

Speaking to aviation journalists at the Presidential Lounge of the Murtala Mohammed Airport Lagos, the Action Congress of Nigeria, ACN, chieftain said ACN would defeat PDP by sweeping the party from the political landscape in the zone, adding that with the principle of one man, one vote in place, PDP would  lose in the elections across the country especially in the South-West.

He said: “We are going to drive them away; PDP will lose in the South-West Zone through one man one vote which is in line with a constitutional democracy and a reliable electoral register.

“If Jega’s integrity is anything that he must protect, then PDP will lose in the South-West Zone.“

He said PDP has never been in existence in Lagos State, adding that PDP had been threatening to take over the state since 1999, but were yet to come close to the seat of power.
