The Director, Directorate of Diaspora Affairs of All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential Campaign Council (PCC), Ade Omole yesterday said about one million Nigerians living abroad have indicated interest to return to vote APC presidential candidate, Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
Speaking to journàlists at the APC National Secretariat, Omole, flanked by other members of his group, said the next Saturday election has been won and lost, adding that the APC candidate has an upper hand over other aspirants.
He also dismissed the possibility of a runoff in the election, saying that before 6pm on the election day, it will be done and dusted, with Tinubu emerging winner with a very wide margin.
“I strongly believe that by 6pm on Saturday, the 25th of February, we will be celebrating the election. Remember we can actually view the result in real time online, Yes! INEC may still take their time because they have to do the collation obviously officially, but I strongly believe that this election would be done and dusted by 6pm”, according to him.
While pointing out that his conviction was based on the feedback he observed from the people in Jos, Kano, Minna, Borno, among others, who trooped out in mass to welcome Tinubu during the campaign in their respective States.
“Why do I say that? Like I mentioned earlier on, you need to see the feedback from the people. We were at the flag off in Jost, I was in Kano, I was in Minna, I was in Borno, you need to see the response from Nigerians. They just can’t wait. I don’t see any runoff in this election and I believe that by 6pm, we will be done and dusted.
“Obviously, our principal is head and shoulder above any other person out there and Nigerians have actually responded well and I’m sure that they will come out en masse to vote for him.
“Not all the all 1.6 millions Nigerians in diaspora with PVCs would surely come in, but at least some of them are here and they are all voting for our principal, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu.
“Probably on Monday, we would be back here and I am going to refer to this day that I said that we will be done by 6p.m”, he said.
