A former governor of Osun State, Prince Olagunsoye Oyinlola has described the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding between the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, R-APC and 38 other political parties as “an assignment from God.”

The main objective of the agreement signed by the parties on Monday is to defeat President Muammadu Buhari in 2019.

Oyinlola, who spoke on behalf of the ADC at the meeting, said the agreement was the only solution to rescue the country, warning that if it failed, then the country and the citizens would regret it.

He further urged the parties to be committed to the letter and spirit of the MoU.

“We are committed to the restructuring of this nation and we must respect the spirit and letter of this understanding.

“When Nigerians voted in 2015, they thought the APC vehicle would take them to the Promised Land. But three years after, the APC has failed and failed tragically too. We must not fail to rescue the nation and if we do, then the nation is finished,” he said.
