Atiku Abubakar, the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democatic Party, cancelled his visit to Ogun state, in order to avoid causing chaos, PDP governorship candidate of the state, Buruji Kashamu, has said.

Kashamu, who spoke to our correspondent on Thursday, said despite the controversy that surrounded his emergence as the candidate of the party, he would win the election.

Kashamu told our correspondent that he believed there would be chaos if Atiku had visited.

He said, “He (Atiku) decided not to visit Ogun State because he wanted to avoid having any problem. You know the other guy, Ladi Adebutu, is still parading himself as the governorship candidate. We all believe his (Atiku’s) coming can cause chaos. We had written to the police and the DSS to intervene so that there would be no problems. So, the fact that Atiku is a man of rule of law and the national executive has not been following the rule of law, that is why he declined to come to Ogun State.

“I believe the Almighty God is the most powerful and He has the result (of the elections) in his hands. I also believe He is the God of justice. It is not today that we have been on this journey. I love my people in Ogun State and they love me. I believe with much efforts and the support of the people, we will win the elections.”

Kashamu, while expressing confidence in the ability of the Independent National Electoral Commission, said he believed the elections would be free and fair.

He said INEC should be trusted to deliver credible polls having enforced court decisions which were against the ruling All Progressives Congress.

“If, I win this election, I will know what to do to those who had been opposing me. But they had been meeting with me because they know there is nothing they can do. I am sure we will all reconcile at the end of the day,” he added.
