In what seems like what prayer warriors would term as “back to sender”, former vice president Atiku Abubakar has also mocked former president olusegun Obasanjo over the loss of the South- West by the ruling people’s Democratic Party, (PDP). In a statement issued by his campaign organisation and made available to African Examiner, Atiku said: “We are reaping the consequences of Obasanjo’s gross mismanagement of not only the PDP in the South West, but the entire country. We too dey laugh ooo!” He advised Obasanjo to just “get out of the party so that we can rebuild the party we formed.” Recall that on Thursday, when Obasanjo was asked by reporters to react to the emergence of Atiku as the consensus candidate of the North, he comically replied in Pidgin English, “I dey laugh o”, just to ridicule his former deputy. On Friday, the Federal Appeal Court, Ibadan declared the candidate of the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN), Rauf Aregbesola, winner of the 2007 governorship election in Osun State and ordered that he should be sworn in by 12 noon today. ACN and Labour party are now in control of Ekiti, Ondo, Edo, Osun and Lagos. All the elections were won in court following a long legal battle except Lagos.
